if(LEDmap[(DATAchar*8) + outputBIT] > depth)

LEDdriverDATAbuffer[DATAchar] |= 0x0001;

Even though the dynamic data preparation consumes a minimum of system memory, it

takes a lot of computational time. This approach is only recommended for low LED count

applications. A dynamic data preparation approach can reach 100 Hz for 32 LEDs (with

maximum code optimization in C compiler on the STM32 evaluation board).
