The MAX7219 from PMD Way is one of the most versatile LED driver ICs on the market. It can control eight 7-segment LED displays, or an 8 x 8 LED matrix with ease. You can daisy-chain them to control an incredible number of LEDs - all via the SPI interface. We recommend you use an IC socket with these chips (DIP28).
