NeoPixel Stick - 8 x 5050 RGB LED with Integrated Drivers — Adafruit — 1426
STEP

Pinout

  • 5V / +

    NeoPixel Stick power input. Adafruit product page says power the stick with 5VDC, 4-7V works.

    Type · powerVoltage · 5VDC nominal, 4-7V stated by Adafruit product page.
  • GND / -

    NeoPixel Stick ground / supply return. NeoPixel guide states GND connects to power supply ground and controller ground.

    Type · groundVoltage · 0V / ground.
  • DIN / DI

    NeoPixel data input at the input end. Adafruit guide states pads may be labelled DIN or DI and data input can originate from a microcontroller digital pin.

    Type · signal
  • DOUT / DO

    NeoPixel data output at the end of the chain. Adafruit guide states DOUT/DO can be left unconnected or connected to the next chain input.
