Adafruit NeoPixel Ring - 12 x 5050 RGBW LEDs w/ Integrated Drivers

Unleash vibrant lighting possibilities with the 12 LED RGBW NeoPixel Ring. Experience a mesmerizing blend of color with 12 ultra-bright smart LED NeoPixels organized in a 1.45" (37mm) diameter circle. Each LED seamlessly integrates a red, green, and blue light, complemented by a warm white LED for stunning illumination.

These rings are designed for flexibility and creativity. Connect multiple rings effortlessly using a single microcontroller pin, maximizing your design possibilities. Each LED hosts an embedded driver chip, offering addressable control and consistent color output with ~18mA constant current drive, eliminating the need for external choke resistors.

Power the NeoPixel Ring with just 5VDC and dive into a spectrum of colors. Utilize the 32-bit color control, supported by 8-bit PWM per channel, to create dynamic lighting effects. Harness the beauty of both RGB and white lighting to enhance your project’s visual impact.

However, correct timing is crucial due to the NeoPixel's 800 KHz protocol. For smoother motion-based projects, consider DotStars with a higher 20 KHz PWM rate. The NeoPixels, with a 5050-sized LED and integrated microcontroller, enable precise brightness and color control for each R/G/B/W channel.

Our comprehensive NeoPixel Uberguide offers extensive tutorials, wiring instructions, and power usage tips. It's equipped with library support and example code compatible with Arduino setups, ensuring you achieve optimal use from your NeoPixel Ring. Note, an RGBW compatible library is required for accurate control, such as our Adafruit NeoPixel library. Explore endless design opportunities and light up your projects with this durable, efficient lighting solution.
