LED RGB Strip - Addressable, 1m (APA102)
8 units available with a short lead time.
A 1 m addressable RGB LED strip packed with 60 APA102C LEDs. Unlike WS2812-based strips, APA102s are controlled via a standard SPI interface and feature an extremely high PWM frequency for flicker-free dimming. Each LED is individually addressable for full colour control across the entire strip.
The strip runs on 5 V and can be cut between any two LEDs for custom lengths. It comes pre-terminated with 0.1" (2.54 mm) spaced 4-pin connectors on each end for easy daisy-chaining or direct connection to a microcontroller.
