• Each LED is addressable as the driver chip is inside the LED• Each one has ~18m A constant current drive so the colour will be very consistent even if the voltage varies• No external choke resistors are required making the design slim• The LEDs are 'chainable' by connecting the output of one stick into the input of another• Power the whole thing with 5VDC (4-7V works) & you're ready to rock• Please click here to see the Neo Pixel detailed guide Be the belle of the ball with the Neo Pixel Jewel! We fit seven of our the tiny 5050 (5mm x 5mm) smart RGB LEDs onto a beautiful, round PCB with mounting holes & a chainable design to create what we think is our most elegant (and evening-wear appropriate) Neo Pixel board yet. Use only one microcontroller pin to control as many as you can chain together! Each LED is addressable as the driver chip is inside the LED. Each one has ~18m A constant current drive so the color will be very consistent even if the voltage varies, & no external choke resistors are required making the design slim. Power the whole thing with 5VDC & you're ready to rock. The LEDs are 'chainable' by connecting the output of one Jewel into the input of another. There is a single data line with a very timing-specific protocol. Since the protocol is very sensitive to timing, it requires a real-time microconroller such as an AVR, Arduino, PIC, mbed, etc. It cannot be used with a Linux-based microcomputer or interpreted microcontroller such as the netduino or Basic Stamp. Our wonderfully-written Neopixel library for Arduino supports these pixels! As it requires h&-tuned assembly it is only for AVR cores but others may have ported this chip driver code so please google around. An 8 M Hz or faster processor is required. Comes as a single round board with 7 individually addressable RGB LEDs assembled & tested.
