Diatone RGB LED Board with 8x LEDS


Make your own little LED strip arrangement with this stick of WS2812B LEDs. Diatone crammed 8 of the tiny 5050 (5mm x 5mm) smart RGB LEDs onto a PCB with mounting holes and a chainable design. Use only one microcontroller pin to control as many as you can chain together! Each LED is addressable as the driver chip is inside the LED. Each one has ~18mA constant current drive so the color will be very consistent even if the voltage varies, and no external choke resistors are required making the design slim. Power the whole thing with 5VDC (4-7V works) and you’re ready to rock.
The LEDs are ‘chainable’ by connecting the output of one stick into the input of another. There is a single data line with a very timing-specific protocol. Since the protocol is very sensitive to timing, it requires a real-time microconroller such as an AVR, Arduino, PIC, mbed, etc. It cannot be used with a Linux-based microcomputer or interpreted microcontroller such as the netduino or Basic Stamp. An 8MHz or faster processor is required.

Comes as a single stick with 8 individually addressable RGB LEDs assembled and tested.

WS2812B, the second generation of the build-in IC, is 5050RGB LED with 4 soldering points. Compared with WS2812 with 6 soldering points, it keeps your wiring arrangement neater. Can be used with Naze32, CC3D, showing the situation of FC lock/unlock, aileron, brake, throttle, alarm functions, etc.


Specs

  • Voltage Input: 5V (4~7V)
  • Size: 51 x 10mm
