This one is a follow-up to <a href="https://create.arduino.cc/projecthub/Heathen_Hacks-v2/3-pins-32-leds-4-shift-registers-74hc595-834b66?ref=user&ref_id=550502&offset=3">my previous Shift Register tutorial</a> but, instead of using normal 5mm LEDs, we will use Common Anode RGB LEDs.The wiring/connections are pretty much just the same. RGB LEDs just needs more resistors, jumper cables and breadboard space.We will also use the ShiftPWM Library for some demos.It uses SPI tho, so, I can't really elaborate that much on it, since I'm not that familiar with it.******************************************************************************NECESSARY LINKS:<a href="https://github.com/elcojacobs/ShiftPWM">ShiftPWM Library Github Link</a><a href="https://www.arduino.cc/en/Reference/SPI">SPI Definition</a><a href="http://www.ti.com/document-viewer/SN74HC595/datasheet/specifications#SCLS0419845">Datasheet</a><a href="https://rastating.github.io/using-a-74hc595-shift-register-with-an-arduino-uno/">More Information about the IC</a>******************************************************************************<h3 >Social Media Links To Follow (I mean, if you want to):</h3><a href="https://fb.me/HeathenHacks">Facebook</a><a href="https://twitter.com/HeathenHacks">Twitter</a><a href="https://instagr.am/HeathenHacks">Instagram</a>******************************************************************************<div id="gallery"><img id="gallery" src=https://projects.arduinocontent.cc/da57c5f1-0324-40c2-8dbf-14838514e2b0.png /><figcaption>Pin Definitions</figcaption><img id="gallery" src=https://projects.arduinocontent.cc/7864ed12-add2-4a76-9228-59ffb7b97391.JPG /><figcaption>1st SR Set Wiring Phase</figcaption><img id="gallery" src=https://projects.arduinocontent.cc/3d2af271-3d06-41cf-bc44-dc14f3a0c02e.jpg /><figcaption>Resistors Added</figcaption><img id="gallery" src=https://projects.arduinocontent.cc/722d56f7-fe5f-4515-a397-fd23cf2404de.JPG /><figcaption>1st Set of LEDs</figcaption><img id="gallery" src=https://projects.arduinocontent.cc/f91a7d40-a9db-4be7-973e-2b0657bdee8b.JPG /><figcaption>2nd Set of SRs</figcaption><img id="gallery" src=https://projects.arduinocontent.cc/d75c78ae-65f2-4d41-b37e-2d02f8b8c9c6.JPG /><figcaption>2nd SR Set Wiring Phase</figcaption><img id="gallery" src=https://projects.arduinocontent.cc/02e55006-1e06-4af2-ac94-4a7a24647307.JPG /><figcaption>2nd SR Set Wiring Phase</figcaption><img id="gallery" src=https://projects.arduinocontent.cc/6ed67914-def3-4ab6-8ecd-23c4e4872322.JPG /><figcaption>2nd SR Set Wiring Phase</figcaption><img id="gallery" src=https://projects.arduinocontent.cc/8f686586-046c-4b5b-8f93-9e0971566a51.JPG /><figcaption>2nd SR Set Wiring Phase</figcaption></div><div class="se-component se-video-container __se__float-none" contenteditable="false" style="width: 100%;"><figure style="width: 100%; height: 56.25%; padding-bottom: 56.25%; margin: 0px;"><iframe frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_Be6fo5NSzc" data-proportion="true" data-percentage="100%,56.25%" data-size="100%,56.25%" data-align="none" style="width: 100%; height: 100%;" data-index="0" data-file-size="0" data-origin="100%,56.25%"></iframe><figcaption contenteditable="true"><div>Video Is Up!</div></figcaption></figure></div><figure><img src=https://projects.arduinocontent.cc/2bbada2f-9879-400c-b98d-01ab2aeff8e0.png /><figcaption>https://youtube.com/@HeathenHacks</figcaption></figure>
