# QMK Hardware Drivers
QMK is used on a lot of different hardware. While support for the most common MCU's and matrix configurations is built-in there are a number of drivers that can be added to a keyboard to support additional hardware. Examples include mice and other pointing devices, i/o expanders for split keyboards, bluetooth modules, and LCD, OLED, and TFT screens.
<!-- FIXME: This should talk about how drivers are integrated into QMK and how you can add your own driver.

## ProMicro (AVR Only)
Restructure the hardware and feature docs to make things easier to find (#1888) * fix #1313 by documenting more config.h options * Clean up and organize documentation
2017-10-25 03:34:28 +00:00
Support for addressing pins on the ProMicro by their Arduino name rather than their AVR name. This needs to be better documented, if you are trying to do this and reading the code doesn't help please [open an issue](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/issues/new) and we can help you through the process.

## SSD1306 (AVR Only)
Restructure the hardware and feature docs to make things easier to find (#1888) * fix #1313 by documenting more config.h options * Clean up and organize documentation
2017-10-25 03:34:28 +00:00
Support for SSD1306 based OLED displays. This needs to be better documented, if you are trying to do this and reading the code doesn't help please [open an issue](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/issues/new) and we can help you through the process.
## uGFX
You can make use of uGFX within QMK to drive character and graphic LCD's, LED arrays, OLED, TFT, and other display technologies. This needs to be better documented, if you are trying to do this and reading the code doesn't help please [open an issue](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/issues/new) and we can help you through the process.

## WS2812 (AVR Only)
Restructure the hardware and feature docs to make things easier to find (#1888) * fix #1313 by documenting more config.h options * Clean up and organize documentation
2017-10-25 03:34:28 +00:00
Support for WS2811/WS2812{a,b,c} LED's. For more information see the [RGB Light](feature_rgblight.md) page.
RGB Driver Documentation Update (#3601) - Minor formating in rgb matrix page - Added a short discription for is31fl3731 in drivers page
2018-08-10 00:41:48 +00:00
## IS31FL3731 (AVR Only)
Support for up to 2 drivers. Each driver impliments 2 charlieplex matrices to individually address LEDs using I2C. This allows up to 144 same color LEDs or 32 RGB LEDs. For more information on how to setup the driver see the [RGB Matrix](feature_rgb_matrix.md) page.
