Hi,
I'd like to have 3 boards, with a 8-bit shift register on each,
and run the 3 line serial bit shifting line along the 3 boards.
I'd like each board to have 6 LEDs only, (not fully using the 8 bits).
Is there a way (hardware) to "jump" these 2 unused connections ?
can I connect the Q6 to the "data in" of the next IC ? or that would be wrong ?
A software solution would be to add 2-bit dummy after every 6 bits.
but that would make the code more complex.
Any idea ?
