5M WS2812B 5v addressable RGB led strip

The WS2812B 5V Addressable RGB LED Strip Light is a versatile, highly programmable electronic component designed to provide customizable, dynamic RGB illumination. 

Key Features

• Supply voltage: The LED strip operates on a 5V DC supply voltage.
• LED type: The LEDs used are WS2812Bs, incorporating an intelligent controller in each 5050 SMD RGB LED.
• Individual control: Each LED can be separately controlled in terms of color and brightness, thanks to a built-in shift register and an internal PWM of 8 bits per channel (24 bits per LED).
• Connectivity: The strip uses a 3-pin JST connector for connection: VCC (red), GND (black), and data (green).
• Length and Density: Available in different lengths, typically 1 meter or 5 meters, with 60 LEDs per meter.
• Protection and Durability: The strip is often protected by an epoxy coating (IP20 or IP65 depending on model), and features a self-adhesive surface for easy installation.
• Cuttable: The strip can be cut between each LED to create customized lengths.

Areas of use

• Decoration and lighting: Used for decorating homes, stores, cars and other spaces to create personalized lighting atmospheres.
• Arduino and Microcontroller Projects: Ideal for projects based on Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other microcontrollers, enabling the creation of complex animations and lighting effects.
• Surveillance and Security Systems: Can be integrated into surveillance and security systems for dynamic, customized lighting effects.
• Events and Leisure: Used in hotels, game rooms, KTVs and other entertainment venues to enhance the atmosphere.

Project examples

• Light animations with Arduino: Create complex light animations using libraries like Adafruit NeoPixel or FastLED to control WS2812B LEDs.
• Car decoration: Use LED strip to create custom lighting effects on car chassis or inside vehicles.
• LED arrays: Assemble multiple strips to form LED arrays for data visualization projects or art installations.
• Stage Lighting: Integrate LED strip into stage lighting projects for dynamic, customized lighting effects.
