Enhancing Pixel Control Performance with Teensy 3.2 and W5500 Ethernet Shield
I’m looking into ways of using multiple Teensy 3.2’s and farming out pixels to each of them, using a WIZnet W5500 Ethernet adapter, and an OctoWS2811 adapter.

Project description
As a part of my project to scale beyond the ~4000 pixels that Teensy 3.2 supports at 60Hz, I’m looking into ways of using multiple Teensy 3.2’s and farming out pixels to each of them. The idea would be to build a simple “Branch Controller” consisting of a Teensy 3.2, a WIZnet W5500 Ethernet adapter, and an OctoWS2811 adapter. The first part of the project was just making sure that I could use the W5500 with Teensy 3.2. I had bought the Arduino Shield version of the W5500 ($23). The whole Arduino Shield is large and clunky and includes an SD card slot I don’t need, so I really should have…
