• The rings are 'chainable'
- connect the output pin of one to the input pin of another• 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 colour will be very consistent even if the voltage varies, & no external choke resistors are required making the design slim• Comes as a single ring with 24 individually addressable RGB LEDs assembled & tested• Power the whole thing with 5VDC & you're ready to rock• To check out the Neo Pixel Library please click here Round & round & round they go! 24 ultra bright smart LED Neo Pixels are arranged in a circle with 2.6" (66mm) outer diameter. The rings are 'chainable'
- connect the output pin of one to the input pin of another. 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 colour 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. 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 ring with 24 individually addressable RGB LEDs assembled & tested.
