RobG 1,892 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 WIZpix is an internet enabled RGB pixel controller with built in PoE. WIZpix uses W5500 internet appliance to connect to internet and MSP430F5172 MCU to control RGB pixels. Built-in DC/DC converter allows use of PoE, which eliminates need for directly connected power supply, ability to place controller far away from the outlet, and use of only one inexpensive CAT-5 cable.
