WS2812B Neopixel Addressable RGB LED Module: 5x5 Square Matrix with 25-bit Colour

Experience the versatility and popularity of the WS2812 LED matrix, also known as the LED ring. This innovative lighting component integrates multiple individually addressable RGB (Red, Green, Blue) LEDs into one circuit. It's an ideal choice for a range of creative and decorative applications, from mood lighting to visual effects and signage.

🔑 Key Features:

• LED Configuration: The WS2812 LED matrix or LED ring is designed with a series of RGB LEDs arranged in a specific pattern. This could be a grid for a matrix or a circle for a ring. Each LED features three individually controllable channels for red, green, and blue colours, offering a broad spectrum of colour combinations.


• Individually Addressable: WS2812 LEDs stand out with their individually addressable feature. Each LED in the matrix or ring can be independently controlled, enabling the creation of dynamic lighting patterns, animations, and effects.


• Daisy-Chaining: You can connect multiple LED matrices or rings in a chain and control them all with a single data line.


• Digital Control: WS2812 LEDs operate using a digital control protocol, based on the WS2812 or NeoPixel protocol. This protocol allows you to control the colour and brightness of each LED by sending specific digital commands. Microcontrollers like Arduino and Raspberry Pi are commonly used for this purpose.
