Classification: CPC H  G | IPC G  H

Claim 17:
18. A hardware arrangement for a lighting system, comprising:
a light emitting diode (LED) die having a light emitting pixel array;
a board electrically coupling the hardware arrangement to an external system; and
a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) backplane coupled to the LED die and the board, the CMOS backplane provides image data to the LED die, the image data defining how to drive the light emitting pixel array to provide an image, wherein the CMOS backplane includes:
a universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter (UART) interface coupled to the board, the UART to receive the image data from the board; and
conversion circuitry coupled to the UART interface, the conversion circuitry to receive the image data in a first bit length from the UART interface and translate the image data into a second bit length and drive LEDs of the light emitting pixel array using the image data in the second bit length.
