## Description

Put on your sunglasses before wiring up this LED matrix — 64 eye-blistering RGB LEDs adorn the NeoPixel NeoMatrix for a blast of configurable colour. Arranged in an 8×8 matrix, each pixel is individually addressable with just one microcontroller pin, delivering 24-bit colour (8-bit PWM per channel). This is the RGB version of the NeoMatrix. For projects that also need a dedicated white channel, check out the RGBW versions: Warm White (~3000K), Natural White (~4500K), and Cool White (~6000K). Key Features 64 RGB LEDs – 8×8 individually addressable matrix with full 24-bit colour Single-Pin Control – One data line drives all 64 LEDs using the NeoPixel protocol Chainable – Connect DOUT of one panel to DIN of the next for larger displays Two 3-Pin Ports – Input and output connectors for easy daisy-chaining Power Requirements Supply voltage: 5 V DC Maximum draw: ~60 mA per pixel (up to 3.5 A per panel at full white) Typical draw: 1–2 A per panel during normal use Wiring Connect 5V and GND from your power supply to the input port Connect DIN to a digital pin on your microcontroller (pin 6 recommended for Arduino) Ensure a common ground between the power supply and microcontroller To chain panels: connect the first panel's DOUT to the second panel's DIN Tip: When chaining four or more panels, you may run low on RAM on boards like the Arduino Uno (3 bytes per RGB pixel, 192 bytes per panel). Consider a board with more memory for larger installations. Compatibility Works with real-time microcontrollers: Arduino (AVR, SAMD, nRF52), ESP32, ESP8266, Teensy, and more Requires 8 MHz or faster processor Supported by Adafruit's NeoPixel library (Arduino) and CircuitPython/MicroPython neopixel module Not compatible with Linux-based SBCs or interpreted platforms (e.g., Basic Stamp) for direct driving Ideal For Colourful LED signage and displays Scrolling text and pixel art Wearable electronics and costumes Interactive art installations Multi-panel tiled displays Package Contents 1× Adafruit NeoPixel NeoMatrix 8×8 – 64 RGB LED Pixel Matrix Resources NeoPixel Uberguide – Comprehensive guide covering wiring, libraries, and example code
