{"title":"WS2812B 5050 Addressable RGB LED - Cut Tape","handle":"smd-led-rgb-ws2812b-cut-tape","url":"/products/smd-led-rgb-ws2812b-cut-tape","description":"The WS2812B is a compact 5050-sized SMD RGB LED with an integrated control circuit, making each LED individually addressable. Often referred to as a “NeoPixel”, it is widely used for addressable lighting projects and development board indicator lights.This 4-pin version breaks the LED out as Vcc, GND, Data In and Data Out, improving on older 6-pin models and helping simplify PCB layout and hand-soldering. It uses one-wire serial control, so complex RGB lighting effects can be driven from a single data pin.Each red, green and blue channel can be set to one of 256 brightness levels for 8-bit colour depth, giving 16,777,216 possible colour combinations per LED. The cut-tape format is ideal when you need small quantities for prototypes, repairs, classroom projects or short custom PCB runs rather than a full reel.Documentation for this part includes a datasheet, hookup guide and LED tutorial.Features:Individually addressable: integrated control circuit inside each LEDOne-wire serial control: uses one data pin8-bit colour depth: 256 different levels for each red, green and blue channelColour range: 16,777,216 (256³) possible colour combinations for each LED4-pin Design: Vcc, GND, Data In, Data OutCut Tape Packaging: supplied in cut-tape formatPrototyping: suitable for prototyping a new designSmall runs: suitable for small, custom PCB runsRepairs: suitable for repairing an existing LED stripEducation: suitable for classroom projects or workshopsSpecifications:Package size: 5050-sized (5mm x 5mm)Viewing angle: 120 degreesRed: (620-625nm) @ 390-420mcdGreen: (522-525nm) @ 660-720mcdBlue: (465-467nm) @ 180-200mcdForward Voltage - Red: 2.0-2.2VForward Voltage - Green: 3.0-3.4VForward Voltage - Blue: 3.0-3.4V","vendor":"SparkFun","product_type":"Addressable LED","in_stock":false,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":16108,"title":"Default Title","sku":"SF-COM-24837","mpn":"COM-24837","price":1.4,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":false,"available_quantity":0}]}
