  1. Hello, does anyone know where I can buy just the MAX7219 drivers (not just the chips, the PCB… the whole driver) but NOT with an LED matrix, that I already have?

    I have a bunch of matrices I want to chain together, but they do not have drivers to put them on.

    I am looking to buy JUST the drivers shown on the back of your matrices here. Who sells them? All product pages I’ve seen on the entire internet bundle red,blue,or green matrices in with them.
