NovaStar DH7516 LED Receiving Card
The DH7516 is a general-purpose receiving card for LED display cabinets. Its 16 standard HUB75E connectors support up to 32 groups of parallel RGB data. Brightness calibration, quick adjustment of dark or bright lines, 3D and independent RGB Gamma adjustment help configure the display for its modules and signal chain.
Production status: The original listing identifies DH7516 as discontinued and recommends DH7516-S as an alternative. Check module wiring, driver ICs and the cabinet configuration before selecting a replacement.

Configuration and Maintenance
The 512 × 384 figure is the PWM-IC limit, not a universal rating for every module. Match the driver IC, scan configuration and module wiring to the receiving-card configuration. The specification requires NovaLCT V5.3.0 or later for the stated maximum loading capacity.
Brightness calibration works with NovaLCT and a calibration platform; the document recommends CalCube MiniLED V1.1.0 or later. For 3D, use a sending card that supports 3D. Independent RGB Gamma adjustment also requires a compatible sending card and NovaLCT V5.2.0 or later.
Maintenance functions include Mapping, stored startup or signal-loss images, temperature and voltage monitoring, bit-error detection, firmware readback and configuration readback. Loop backup and dual backup of configuration parameters support recovery when the system is configured accordingly.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum resolution of the DH7516?
The V1.1.1 specification lists 512 × 384 pixels with PWM driver ICs and 384 × 384 pixels with general driver ICs. NovaLCT V5.3.0 or later is required for the stated maximum loading capacity.
How many HUB75E connectors does DH7516 have?
It has 16 standard HUB75E connectors and supports up to 32 groups of parallel RGB data. Check the module pinout against the interface diagram in the PDF.
What power supply does the DH7516 require?
The specified input range is 3.3–5.5 V DC. Rated current is 0.5 A and rated power consumption is 2.5 W.
Does the DH7516 support 3D?
Yes, when used with a sending card that supports 3D. The receiving card alone does not provide the complete 3D signal chain.
Is DH7516 still in production, and what is the alternative?
This listing identifies DH7516 as no longer in production and recommends DH7516-S. Verify the module wiring, driver IC support and cabinet configuration before replacing an existing card.
