Building a Digital Scoreboard: Essential Components and Modules for P10 Dot Matrix Displays
Post Date

Here’s a list of the parts, accessories, and modules you will need for building a digital scoreboard using P10 dot matrix displays:
1. P10 Dot Matrix Displays
- Main display units that form the visual output.
- Each module typically measures 32cm x 16cm and can be connected to create larger screens.
2. Microcontroller/Controller Board SCOREDUINO-DMD
- Pre-programmed SCOREDUINO-DMD boards are recommended. You can choose one output from a list of multiple outputs.
- Arduino Mega Shield for RGB or ESP32 modules are commonly used for controlling multiple P10 displays due to their sufficient number of I/O pins and memory.
3. Power Supply
- A 5V DC power supply capable of providing sufficient current to power the displays. A typical 32cm x 16cm P10 display may consume around 3-4A, so a 5V 10A power supply would be suitable for multiple panels.
- DC Barrel to Screw Terminal Module: To simplify power connections.
4. Power Distribution Module
- DC Barrel to Screw Terminal Adapter: For distributing power between modules efficiently.
- Custom PCB strips: For connecting multiple P10 displays.
5. Control Buttons/Interfaces
- Wired remote control, wireless controller, or Bluetooth module (such as HC-06 for mobile app control) to update scores and manage the display.
6. Data Cables
- Jumper wires or Dupont cables for data connections between P10 displays and the controller.
7. Enclosure
- Weather-resistant and sturdy housing for outdoor use.
8. SCOREDUINO Android Apps
- We have made multiple apps for all types of digital scoreboards. You can download the apps and use them for your scoreboard. If you have a different idea, we will design a new app for your scoreboard. Contact us.

9. Cooling Fans (Optional)
- For large setups where heat could be an issue, exhaust fans can be used to cool down the display modules.
This setup covers the essentials needed for a robust digital scoreboard based on P10 dot matrix displays.
