Each LED contains three white dies and an integrated driver for smooth 24-bit PWM control and consistent, brilliant light. Perfect for custom lighting designs and compact projects needing crisp, monochrome illumination.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\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 Cool White LED arrangement with the same integrated LED driver that is used in our NeoPixel LED strips.  Unlit, the colour resembles a yellow Starburst. Lit up, these are insanely bright (like ouch my eyes hurt) 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. If you want to prototype with these, we recommend our 5050-size LED breakout PCBs, solder them on for a breadboard-friendly package\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeoPixel LEDs use 800 KHz protocol, so specific timing is required. 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 package with 10 individual LEDs.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/q9AcBWP-X4o?si=kUjLwEjlDF9teTrs\u0026amp;start=477\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle LED: 5mm x 5mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt is 6000-6500K colour temp and seems to have 3 white LEDs in place of the normal Red\/Green\/Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMay ship with either WS2812B or SKC6812RV-based LEDs.
