QuinLED Diff-Solo specifications

Back to QuinLED Diff-Solo main page

The QuinLED-Diff-Solo system consists of 2 boards, a Sender and a Receiver board. You need the Sender board near your data source (like a Dig-Uno, Dig-Quad or Dig-Octa System) it will take in the LED data and transform it to a differential signal. Then near the LEDs you have a Receiver board which takes in the differential type signal and transforms it back to a level-shifted + 33R resistor LED data signal to hook up your LEDs.

The Sender and Receiver board can be on different power supplies even with different voltages and do not need a shared GND connection, please see the below specifications for the supported voltages.

For the pinout used on the RJ45 side, please see this article.

QuinLED Diff-Solo – Receiver board

This board takes in the differential signal through the RJ45 UTP cable socket and converts it to a 5v level-shifted + 33R resistor data signal for addressable LEDs to use. Next to that the board has a separate 2p power input socket which runs the power through a fuse and large capacitor before going to the 3p output terminals to which you connect your LEDs.
