## Description

A ring of 16 individually addressable RGBW NeoPixel LEDs (SK6812 5050 package) arranged in a 44.5 mm outer diameter circle. Each LED contains four emitters — red, green, blue, and a dedicated cool white (~6000 K) — providing full-colour mixing plus a true white channel for superior lighting effects. Each LED includes an integrated driver with ~18 mA constant-current drive per channel, ensuring consistent colour regardless of voltage variation. Control all 16 LEDs from a single microcontroller pin using the 800 kHz NeoPixel protocol. Rings are chainable — connect the output of one ring to the input of the next. Key Features 16× RGBW LEDs – SK6812 5050 with dedicated cool white (~6000 K) channel 32-Bit Colour – 8-bit PWM per channel (R, G, B, W) for over 4 billion colour combinations Single-Pin Control – All LEDs driven from one digital output via 800 kHz protocol Chainable – Connect multiple rings in series for larger displays Constant Current – ~18 mA per channel for consistent brightness Compact Ring – 44.5 mm (1.75″) outer diameter Specifications LED Count – 16 LED Type – SK6812 RGBW 5050 White Temperature – ~6000 K (cool white) Protocol – 800 kHz (NeoPixel-compatible) PWM Rate – ~400 Hz Current Per Channel – ~18 mA constant current Supply Voltage – 5 V DC Outer Diameter – 44.5 mm (1.75″) Note: Requires an RGBW-compatible NeoPixel library.
