RGB LED Shield diagrams for documentation purposes

17 Dec 2014

For those creating projects with the RGB LED ShieldRGB LED Shield, hopefully these images can come in handy.

They are attached to the bottom of this post in two versions - white background and transparent background.

I can't take credit for the Arduino Uno diagram, I found that on the Internet (not sure of the original source, it was in many places - and just edited it slightly).

Hi Parker, Can you try the program called RGBLED_2_SAFE.ino ? I tried that, with LEDs connected to the red channel only, and they worked, see the post here: RGB LED Shield from Infineon - Getting Started…

Yes that file did not seem to have anything to hookup to. But shabaz 's Inkscape file worked once I deleted the big white rectangle from it.

I do not beleive there is a minimum current limit for the Infineon board, it is simply the set constant current in the demo sketch, the board is actually programable for almost any current up to the MAX…

In the file that I have linked, there are no properly object for pins...
I remember that the red layer in that file had some holes for the pins... and below the red layer a yellow layer.

I think this is wrong for what you are lookin for.

Getting an SVG file that it will import seems to be the challenge. I used Inkscape to create a simple schematic component but when I loaded that in, it broke all the text. Am going to export one of their parts and edit that to meet my requirements. I suspect that the layers need to be called something special. The mapping of the pins is just a case of clicking on the pin and then on the SVG shape representing the pin.

Hi Andy, that's great! It will be interesting to see it, and also I'm curious to hear how hard/easy it is to fritzing-ize diagrams.

This one loaded correctly, I just need to map the correct pins now. Many thanks. I'll post up the part library when done.
