-DESCRIPTION
These are the smallest NeoPixel breakouts around! Tiny, bright RGB pixels to your
project. These little PCBs are only 8mm x 10mm and 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 color ability with PWM taken care of by the controller
chip. Since the LED is so bright, you need less current/power to get the effects you
want. The driver is constant current so its OK if your battery power changes or
fluctuates a little.
Each pixel draws as much as 60mA (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 and data corruption)
Each order comes with 5 individually controllable pixel buttons.
Our detailed NeoPixel Uberguide has everything you need to use NeoPixels in any
shape and 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)
