can you help what transistor should i connect to a cathode row? and what resistors should i use? my led matrix row is connected with a 74ls154 IC w/c output is active low..
 

im creating a 14x40 led display.. w/c is 14rows and 40 columns. am i on the right track having my rows connected to a PNP transistor?
 

you can use value 47 ohms

less than 47 is better because your row is 14
 

im using 110ohms in my base.. my collector is connected to the ground and my emitter is connected to the row of my led matrix.. my base is connected to the output of my 74ls154.. is my design correct? and where should i connect the 47 ohms resistor?
 

my collector is in ground.. how about my emitter?
 



im using tip147 transitor in my row.. and 74hc595 in my columns? should i use transistors in my columns? whats the connection of my tip147? base in 74ls154 output? and collector to led matrix row? and emitter to the ground? am i correct?
