Adafruit DotStar LED Strip - Addressable Warm White-30 LED/m 1m

Move over NeoPixels, there's a new LED strip in town! These advanced DotStar LED strips, ideal for anyone familiar with NeoPixel, offer enhanced functionality. DotStar LEDs utilize generic 2-wire SPI, allowing data to transfer faster than the NeoPixel's 800 KHz protocol, with no specific timing constraints.

With higher PWM refresh rates, DotStar strips enable Persistence-of-Vision (POV) and display minimal flickering, especially at lower brightness levels. Perfect for creating unique smart warm white LED setups, these strips employ an advanced integrated LED driver.

Designed for versatility, DotStar strips fit any microcontroller or microprocessor, including Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and BeagleBone. With easy library portability, they support data transmission at up to 32MHz clock rate, exceeding NeoPixel capabilities. The 30 LED-per-meter version on white flex PCB ensures easy customization: cut at designated points or connect multiple strips. Remember to match power requirements to prevent damage.

Available in 5-meter reels with 4-pin JST SM connectors, these strips are perfect for monochromatic or colorful lighting projects. Enhance your creativity with the accompanying tutorial, which covers wiring, power calculations, and example code.
