These incredibly small surface-mount LEDs are an efficient way to add vibrant, colorful illumination to your projects. At just 2mm square, they integrate seamlessly into designs where space is a premium.
Specifications:
With a constant current of ~12mA, these LEDs maintain consistent color, eliminating the need for external resistors. Each LED contains three color components—red, green, and blue—controlled by a tiny chip that simplifies PWM control. Set your desired color once, and you're all set.
Chain them effortlessly, as the output of one LED feeds into the input of the next. This configuration allows for nearly infinitely long strips, perfect for intricate lighting designs. Each purchase includes 100 pieces divided into 10 strips of 10, offering flexibility without a cumbersome layout.
These LEDs are designed for SMD PCB applications. They can be challenging to hand-solder, so techniques involving solder paste and hot air are recommended. For those new to SMD soldering, alternative RGB LED options are available.
Enhance your project with the most compact and bright lighting available, whether using our library and example code for Arduino platforms or integrating into custom designs. A comprehensive NeoPixel guide is available to support your creative endeavors.
