Unlike standard top-emitting LEDs, these emit light at 90° from the PCB surface, making them ideal for edge-lit designs, light pipes, and compact indicator arrays.\n\nEach 4 × 2 mm SMD package contains red, green, and blue LEDs driven by an internal controller that accepts 24-bit colour data via a single-wire protocol. The ~18 mA constant-current driver ensures consistent colour regardless of voltage variation, with no external resistors required. Power with 5 V DC.\n\nKey Features\n\n\nSide-Emitting – Light output at 90° from the PCB, perfect for edge-lit effects\n\nNeoPixel Compatible – Works with the Adafruit NeoPixel library and any NeoPixel-compatible code\n\nChainable – Connect output to input to create strips of any length\n\nIntegrated Driver – 24-bit colour control with ~18 mA constant-current per channel\n\nCompact 4020 Package – Just 4 × 2 mm, the most space-efficient way to add addressable RGB LEDs\n\n5 V DC Operation – No external resistors needed\n\n\n\nNote: This is a surface-mount component designed for SMD PCB assembly. It is possible to solder thin wires to the pads, but hand-soldering experience with SMD parts is recommended. An 8 MHz or faster microcontroller is required.\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nCustom side-emitting LED strips and arrays\nEdge-lit signs and displays\nCompact indicator lights on custom PCBs\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n10× SK6812B 4020 side-emitting RGB LEDs (on a strip)\n\n\nResources\n\nNeoPixel Uberguide\nAdafruit NeoPixel Library (GitHub)\n","vendor":"Adafruit","product_type":"physical","in_stock":false,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":3851,"title":"Default Title","sku":"AF-4691","price":8.2,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":false,"available_quantity":0,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
