Hi Glen, great work.

Sorry, i did not get a response from your youtube channel, so i thought to try here.

Is it possible to increase the refresh rate from 200Hz to about 2KHz? What is the maximum, and if possible how could that be achieved. I would like to have this one a single 32 x 32 Led Matrix, and i would only need red green, blue and white colour.

Is it also possible to use the BeagleBoneGreen instead of the BBB? Reason being the BBG is more compatible to my IoT based project.

Lastly, since this setup is fairly dated, does everything still work as it should or is there any updates i need to look into?

I appreciate your help, thanks.

Thanks for sharing your code and video's I am learning from it and will also be using some of it to assist some students by pointing them to your project.

You repeat the logic block that already exists in the IDLE state. (checking available data etc)
Would it not have been simpler to move to the IDLE state after sending the byte out.
I am trying to make sense of the verilog code and reconstruct the state diagram / state transitions diagram (so I can explain them to other people too)

As a general question : Do you have a structured way to approach FSM design? I have not been able to find a good tutorial yet. Pointers welcome. As a general remark, your code and design looks very clean ;-) compared to other stuff I found.
