Worldsemi HC-F5V-30L-30LED-B-IP60 WS2812B 5VDC 45W 30LED/m IP60 flexible digital LED strip, 5m reel *new*

Have you ever dreamed of LED strip where you could change the the strip color even somehow in more ways than by adjusting the whole strip colors at once. Well, the basic RGB LED strip does just that, and there are some situations when it's okay, though. This WS2812B LED driver circuit equipped RGB LED strip is something else entirely. You can change the strip color with every LED  exactly the way you want, whenever you want. WS2812B LED strip can make you even Knight Rider lights with LED strip running red lights from end to end. Alternatively, you can grab a idea beer and throw yourself completely wild, let your imagination loose and encode your controller to do almost anything you like with this strip. This does not iron clothes and it does not fill in tax declaration, but yes, this can be made into a damn fine working light for doing those chores. Perhaps the most coolest application wver for theese LED’s is a big screen. 60LED/m LED strips work best for this application.

Digital LED strip is also known as WS2812B strip accoding to it’s driver chip or they are as well referred as NeoPixel LED strip.

If you want to order more of this tape than our web shop availability says, then contact our customer service. We can order up more of this according to the needs.

In addition to selling these, we are also offering various installation, programming and product developmenta services regarding digital LED strips. Contact our customer care and tell us what do you need and lets get things going!

Here is a couple of examples where this digital LED strip can be applied:

• Night club, bar, restaurant
• Kebab restaurant (after all, the colorful LED lights have already gain foothold in them to stay)
• Vehicle interiour and under lighting
• Architectual lighting (property lighting)
• For boat or summer cottage
• Billboard
• Huge infoscreen / display
• Work of art and art shows
• Interiour lighting
• Effect lighting

And after all, there is plenty of ideas. Internet is full of additional implementation ideas and it will give you some help for brainstorming sessions if you need more ideas on how and where to apply LED’s. Teensy 3.1 USB development board, which is sold in our web shop can be used for controlling the LED’s.

LED strip dimensions:

• Width:
  • 12.2mm
• Thickness:
  • 4mm
• Length:
  • 5000mm

WS2812B is LED-light source, where controller is integrated in a single 5050 size packaging. This controller is used in LED-strips, where each LED is in a single group and therefore individually controllable.

Integrated circuits include internally an intelligent digital port and signal reshaping signal amplifier. This way the signal stays unchanged from controlling chip to another. Chip also includes a internal oscillator and a programmable constant current control part. The data transfer protocol uses NZR communication mode. After powering up, the controller circuit receives data from controller in a manner, that it will take the first 24bit for itself and sends the rest forward to the signal amplifier, which takes care, that the controlling signal stays the same way and off it goes to the next controlling chip.

8 bits = Green
8 bits = Red
8 bits = Blue

When each LED in a strip has received it's data in it's buffer, voltage in dataport falls to 0V over 50 µs, then each LED powers up at same time with programmed color and intensity.

Data transfer timing WS2812B

			Control line high		Control line low
0 bit			0.4µs ±150ns			0.85µs ±150ns
1 bit			0.8µs ±150ns			0.45µs ±150ns
Refresh							Over 50µs
