Each 5 × 5 mm package contains an RGB LED and controller with ~18 mA constant-current drive, delivering consistent colour regardless of voltage variation. No external resistors are needed.\n\nThe LEDs are chainable: connect the data output of one chip to the data input of the next. They operate at the 800 kHz high-speed protocol and require a real-time microcontroller (AVR, Arduino, PIC, or similar) running at 8 MHz or faster. They are not compatible with Linux-based microcomputers or interpreted controllers such as the Basic Stamp.\n\nKey Features\n\n\nIntegrated WS2812B Driver – No external driver chip or resistors required\n\n~18 mA Constant Current – Consistent colour output across voltage variations\n\nChainable – Single data line connects multiple LEDs in series\n\n5050 Package – 5 × 5 mm SMD form factor\n\n5 V Operation – Standard logic level power supply\n\nBuilt-In Polarity Protection – B-chip variant with reverse-polarity protection\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nCustom PCB LED designs\nWearable electronics and e-textiles\nCompact smart LED arrangements\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n10× NeoPixel 5050 RGB LEDs (WS2812B)\n\n\n\nNote: This is the 4-pin B-chip variant (not the 6-pin S-chip). Same brightness and code interface, but a different pinout — not a drop-in replacement for S-chip designs. These are cut from reels and recommended for hand soldering only (not suitable for pick-and-place reflow).\n\n\nResources\n\nNeoPixel Arduino Library (GitHub)\nEAGLE Component Library (GitHub)\n","vendor":"Adafruit","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":8730,"title":"Default Title","sku":"AF-1655","price":9.15,"compare_at_price":0.0,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":1,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
