NeoPixels / Drivers

A new collaboration between Adafruit & Micah from Scanlime, we are excited to introduce Fadecandy, a NeoPixel driver with built in dithering, that can be controlled over USB. Fadecandy is not just hardware! It is a kit of both hardware and software parts that make LED art projects easier to build and better-looking so sculptors and makers and multimedia artists can concentrate on beautiful things instead of reinventing the wheel. It's an...

This adapter board connects the Teensy 3.1 to up to thousands of WS2811/WS2812 (a.k.a NeoPixel) and compatible LEDs using the OctoWS2811 Library. It features a 74HCT245 buffer chip and 100 ohm series matching resistors. A CAT6 Ethernet cable is used to connect this board to the LED strips. A CAT6 cable is designed for very high bandwidth, minimal cross-talk between twisted pairs, and 100 ohm impedance, for a very high quality signal. Teensy 3.1...
