• These little PCBs are only 8mm x 10mm & have two sets of three pads on the back for soldering wires• These ultra-bright LEDs have a constant-current driver cooked right into the LED package!• The pixels are chainable
- so you only need 1 pin/wire to control as many LEDs as you like.• These pixels have full 24-bit colour ability with PWM taken care of by the controller chip These are the smallest Neo Pixel breakouts around! Tiny, bright RGB pixels to add to your project. Each pixel draws as much as 60m A (all three RGB LEDs on for full brightness white). An Arduino can drive up to 500 pixels at 30 FPS (it will run out of RAM after that). Using ribbon cable you can string these up to 6" apart (after that, you might get power droops & data corruption) Each order comes with 5 individually controllable pixel buttons. Adafruits detailed Neo Pixel Uberguide has everything you need to use Neo Pixels in any shape & size. Including ready-to-go library & example code for the Arduino UNO/ Duemilanove/ Diecimila, Flora/ Micro/ Leonardo, Trinket/ Gemma, Arduino Due & Arduino Mega/ADK (all versions)

•64 RGB LED's arranged in an 8x 8 matrix• Only one microcontroller pin is required to control all the LEDs• And you get 24 bit color for each LED• Please click here to see the Neo Pixel Put on your sunglasses before wiring up this LED matrix
- 64 eye-blistering RGB LEDs adorn the Neo Matrix for a blast of configurable colour. Arranged in an 8x 8 matrix, each pixel is individually addressable. Only one microcontroller pin is required to control all the LEDs, & you get 24 bit colour for each LED. Wiring it up is easy: there are two 3-pin connection ports. Solder wires to the input port & provide 5VDC to the +5V & ground pins, then connect the DIN pin to your microcontroller. If you're using our Neo Pixel Arduino library, use digital 6. You'll also need to make a common ground from the 5V power supply to the microcontroller/ Arduino. Since each LED can draw as much as 60m A (thats up to 3.5 Amps per panel if all LEDs are on bright white!) we suggest our 5V 2A power supply. For most uses, you'll see about 1-2A of current per panel. If, say, you need MORE blinky, you can chain these together. For the second shield, connect the DIN connection to the first panel's DOUT. Also connect a ground pin together & power with 5V. There you go! You can chain as many as you'd like although after 4 or more panels you may run low on RAM if you're using an UNO. Watch your power usage too, you may need a 5V 10A power supply for so many of these! 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 microcontroller 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.

• Arranged in a 5x 8 matrix, each pixel is individually addressable• Only one pin (Digital 6) is required to control all the LEDs• You can cut a trace & use nearly any other pin if you need some customization• Shields can be chained together for extra light blinking joy! • Please click here to see the Neo Pixel detailed guide Put on your sunglasses before putting this shield onto your 'duino
- 40 eye-blistering RGB LEDs adorn the Neo Pixel shield for a blast of configurable color. Arranged in a 5x 8 matrix, each pixel is individually addressable. Only one pin (Digital 6) is required to control all the LEDs. You can cut a trace & use nearly any other pin if you need some customization. To make it easy to start, the LEDs are powered from the 5v onboard Arduino supply. As long as you aren't lighting up all the pixels full power white that should be fine. You can also solder in the included terminal block (pro-tip: put it on the bottom of the board so it doesn't stick up) to attach an external 4-6VDC power supply. There's a polarity protection FET on there in case you wire the power backwards (we would never do that, it was, umm, a friend of ours, yeah that's it!) If, say, you need MORE blinky, you can chain these together. For the second shield, connect the DIN connection to the first shield's DOUT. Also connect a ground pin together & power with 5V. There you go! You can chain as many as you'd like although after 5 or more shields you may run low on RAM if you're using an UNO. We include both stacking headers & plain headers. Use whichever you prefer
- there isn't a lot of space left over for the 'duino pin breakouts so if you want to wire up some other outputs or sensors the stacking headers are good. For a slim sturdy look, solder on the plain headers.

Our 1.27" colour OLED displays are perfect when you need a small display with vivid, high-contrast 16-bit colour. The visible portion of the OLED measures 1.27" diagonal & contains 128x 96 RGB pixels, each one made from red, green & blue OLEDs. Each pixel can be set with 16-bits of resolution for a large range of colours. Because the display uses OLEDs, there is no backlight, & the contrast is very high (black is really black). We picked this display for its excellent colour, this is the nicest mini OLED we could find! This OLED uses the SSD1351 driver chip, which manages the display. You can talk to the driver chip using 4-wire write-only SPI (clock, data, chip select, data/command & an optional reset pin). Included on the fully assembled breakout is the OLED display & a small boost converter (required for providing 12V to the OLED) & a micro SD card holder. This design

• The perfect reference ruler for all your PCB needs!• Handy AWG wire gauge• Measures approx 1" x 6" The first time you soldered up a surface mount component you may have been surprised "these are really small parts!" & there's dozens of different names too! QFN, TDFN, SOIC, SOP, J-Lead, what do they mean & how can you tell how big they are? Now you can have a reference board at your fingertips, with this snazzy PCB reference ruler. Measuring approx 1" x 6", this standard-thickness FR4, gold plate ruler has the most common component packages you'll encounter. It also has font size guide, trace-width diagram, & a set of AWG-sized drills so you can gauge your wire thicknesses. Edges are labeled in inches with 1/8th marks & cm with 0.1cm marks. ...

Adafruit took the basic layout of a quarter-sized breadboard (basically, a 'tiny' breadboard plus power rails) & turned that into a beautiful PCB. The top side has a white silkscreen, & the same markings you're familiar with, to make transferring components easy. The bottom has the 5-hole pad design that matches a classic breadboard, with 4 power bus lines on the sides, & no mask so you can easily cut traces when necessary. We used 1.2mm diameter drill holes so even parts with big leads will fit. All holes are thru-plated for strength
- these wont peel off with rework. The finish is a gold plate
- you won't get oxidation like with bare copper perf! There are also two mounting holes so you can attach the PCB to your project box.
