The Lite-On LTP-305 LED matrices have quite a heritage! They were first developed in 1971 by Texas Instruments, but subsequently have been manufactured by Lite-On.

They're available in two suitably retro colours - red or green - and each display has 5x7 pixels, plus a decimal point.

The matrices can be driven by our , with up to 6 matrices in your choice of colours. Or drive them directly from a suitable microcontroller or matrix driver chip like the IS31FL3730 we use on Micro Dot pHAT.
