Each 5 mm LED includes three warm white dies and an integrated driver for 24-bit PWM control, giving you bright, consistent light without colour mixing. Ideal for compact projects or prototypes—use with a 5050 LED breakout for easy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor those of us who are maybe a little tired of rainbows, we now have 'smart LEDs' in monochrome! Make your own smart Warm White LED arrangement with the same integrated LED driver that is used in our NeoPixel LED strips.  Unlit, the colour resembles an egg yolk. Lit up, these are insanely bright (like ow my eye hurts) and can be controlled with 24 bit high-frequency PWM. The phosphor helps diffuse the 3 white dies inside together for a very bright but consistent light, compared to what you get by trying to mix RGB to make white (which never quite looks right)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tiny 5050 (5mm x 5mm) SMD LED is fairly easy to solder and is the most compact way possible to integrate multiple bright LEDs in a design.

On NeoPixels, the PWM rate is 400 Hz, which works well but is noticeable if the LED is moving. In comparison, DotStars have a 20 KHz PWM rate, so even when moving the LED around, you won't see the pixelation, the blending is very smooth. (we recommend DotStars if you can use them!)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeoPixels are 5050-sized LEDs with an embedded microcontroller inside the LED. You can set the brightness of each of 3 individual cool white dies epoxied into the case. Each LED acts like a shift register, reading incoming data on the input pins, and then shifting the previous data out on the output pin. By sending a long string of data, you can control an infinite number of LEDs, just tack on more or disconnect unwanted LEDs at the end. The PWM is built into each LED-chip, so once you set the brightness you can stop talking to the strip, and it will continue to PWM all the LEDs for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComes in a pack with 10 individual LEDs.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/q9AcBWP-X4o?si=VtAnXaFoeAKYW6G2\u0026amp;start=477\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle LED: 5mm x4.8mm x1.6mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt is ~3000K colour temp and seems to have three white LEDs in place of the normal Red\/Green\/Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eResources\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDatasheet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTutorial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRevision History\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"list-style-type: none;\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAs of September 3, 2024\u003c\/strong\u003e These are now SKC6812RV NeoPixel LEDs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePackage Contents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x NeoPixel Warm White LED w\/ Integrated Driver Chip - 10 Pack - ~3000K\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Adafruit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46982238208172,"sku":"xrg1787257308634","price":3.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/3858\/0140\/files\/neopixel-warm-white-led-w-integrated-driver-chip---10-pack-3000k_1.jpg?v=1787257317"},{"product_id":"adafruit-neopixel-led-strip-starter-pack-30-led-meter-white-discontinued","title":"Adafruit NeoPixel LED Strip Starter Pack - 30 LED meter - White [discontinued]","description":"\u003cp\u003eYou can't bake a cake without flour, sugar, and baking soda?

Important: you’ll need a NeoPixel library that supports RGBW. Using an RGB-only library will give very strange results. The Adafruit NeoPixel library supports RGBW, but other libraries may require modification.

The other end is sealed. The wires are even nicely color-coded: black for ground, green for signal, red for 3-5VDC power. We use SK6812 LEDs on these strips so you don't need an inline resistor and they work down to 3V logic+power.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNeoPixels are addressable LEDs. That means, there are 60 RGB LEDs per meter and the strip is half a meter long so you get 30 individually-controlled RGB LEDs! You can set the color of each LED's red, green and blue component with 8-bit PWM precision (so 24-bit color per pixel). The LEDs are controlled by shift-registers that are chained up down the strip so you can shorten the strip if you like by cutting it. Only 1 digital output pin are required to send data down. The PWM is built into each LED-chip so once you set the color you can stop talking to the strip, and it will continue to PWM all the LEDs for you\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe strip is made of flexible PCB material, and comes in a weatherproof sheathing. You can cut this stuff pretty easily with wire cutters. Of course, you can also connect strips together to make them longer, just watch how much current you need! Chances are you will power these short strips direct from your microcontroller board. You must use a 3-5V DC power supply to power these strips, do not use higher than 6V or you can destroy the entire strip– yikes!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese LEDs use about 4.8 Watts max (~1 Amps @ 5V) per meter. The max rating is assuming all the LEDs are on full white, usually the actual current for colorful design is less than 1\/3 of the max current.
