I want to control a matrix of LEDs for a little light show project. I want to run a grid of 18x18 LEDs and need 36+ IO but can only find that as an SMD package.
I don't know if it's even possible to place SMD components down and hook them up to all my discrete LEDs, so I'm wondering if there is a through hole solution.
And on that note, is there a place to buy these through hole components for a reasonable price? The distributors I've looked at all seem to be for high-power applications--where did my school get the cheap through hole FETS and OPAMPS that they supply us with?
Thank you,
Roman
