Notify me when its in stockNeoPixel 'split', with one half being your familiar RGB, the other half is a yellow phosphor. Without an informed eye, it's egg yolk yellow. When lit, these are crazy bright (eye-searing) and a full 32-bit color (8 x 4 channels = 32 bit color) with PWM 8-bit per channel control. It is great for adding a lot of colorful + white dots to your project!
NeoPixel LEDs use the 800 KHz protocol, so specific timing is required. In NeoPixels, the PWM rate is ~400 Hz, which works well but is noticeable if the LED is moving.
NeoPixels are 5050-sized LEDs with built-in microcontrollers, inside each LED. You can adjust the brightness and color of each R/G/B/W with 8-bit PWM precision (i.e. 32-bit color per pixel). LEDs are controlled by shift registers that are daisy-chained along the strip to shorten or extend the strip. Only 1 digital output pin is required to send data. PWM is embedded in each LED chip, so once you set the color, you can stop talking to the strip and all the LEDs will continue to PWM for you.
The strip is made of flexible PCB material and comes with a weather-resistant case. These materials can be easily cut with wire cutters, and there are cutting lines (one for each LED) every 0.65"/1.7 cm. Solder to 0.1" copper pads and you're ready to go.
You should use a 5V DC power supply to power these strips. Do not exceed 6V or you can destroy the entire strip.
Please note that you will always need a NeoPixel library that supports RGBW. If you try to control them with a simple 'RGB' NeoPixel library, you will get very strange results. Our Adafruit NeoPixel library supports RGBW, but keep in mind that if you are using something else, it may require some hacking. Also, the Blue LED element is close to white phosphors and may leak into the light, so the blue light will also have a mixture of white.
You can order the Adafruit NeoPixel Digital RGBW LED Strip - Black PCB 60 LEDs/m 1m from the Adafruit category at SAMM Market with affordable prices, same-day shipping, and fast delivery advantages.
