Open-source 3D led matrix display project with 5x5x5 pixels driven by a Atmel AVR Microcontroller. Also know as Elektor 080355 project.

In the “bin” directory there are hexfiles for different targets:

• Atmega16 at 1MHz and 8MHz
• Atmega32 at 1MHz and 8MHz

“Be carefull while burning new fuse settings !!!”

1. Disable JTAGEN bit
2. Set correct internal F_CPU speed (1MHz or 8MHz)

Atmega16/32 settings for high and low fuse:

1MHz and JTAGEN disabled:

• hfuse 0xD9
• lfuse 0xE1

8MHz and JTAGEN disabled:

• hfuse 0xD9
• lfuse 0xE4

The fuses can also be calculated with this online script,

Special thanks to:

• Elektor International Media BV the Netherlands to finish this home project during traineeship.
• Mr Beamer for his random led animation posted on Dutch Elektor forum,
• Elias for contributing a movie of his red monocube.

Removed all C++ comment

• Main
  • Renamed cube.c to monocube.c
  • Added monocube.h
  • Added five cube buffers

• Draw
  • Functions now get buffer parameter (pointer) to save ram
  • Renamed all functions to make more clear
  • Deleted column stuff (big fat function)
  • Deleted buffer stuff (obsolete)

• Animations
  • Added random_leds
  • Added random_layer_shiftup
  • Added fill_left_to_right
  • Deleted blink_slow_to_fast

• Main
  • Expanded demo program
  • Big bang
  • Character set display
  • Diagonal line loop trough cube

• Draw
  • Moved separated drivers to draw.c/draw.h library
  • Optimized library flash memory size

• Graphics
