# Raspberry Pi Code Example

This example (ISXMPL3750ex3) demonstrates how to use the IS3750 Addressable LED Controller chip with an Arduino microcontroller board using the Arduino functions.

You can find the complete example at: [www.inacks.com/isxmpl3750ex3](https://www.inacks.com/isxmpl3750ex3)

You can get the IS3750 evaluation board (Kappa3750Ard) compatible with Arduino UNO form factor boards at:\
