Flexible 8x32 NeoPixel RGB LED Matrix
256-pixel flexible NeoPixel LED matrix, 8x32 arrangement on a bendable PCB backing, individually addressable via a single data pin. Can be curved around surfaces; suitable for wearables or non-flat installations.
Pinout
- +5V
NeoPixel matrix power input. Adafruit product page says to use a 5V supply for the flexible 8x32 NeoPixel matrix; NeoPixel Uberguide identifies +5V as one of the three NeoPixel inputs.
Type · powerVoltage · 5V typical NeoPixel supply; product page warns current can exceed 15A at full white and recommends keeping draw under 5A. - GND
Ground return for matrix power and shared microcontroller reference. NeoPixel Uberguide says the three inputs are +5V, ground, and data, with GND shared between the supply and controller.
Type · groundVoltage · 0V reference - DIN / DI
NeoPixel data input at the input end of the matrix. The Uberguide identifies DIN or DI as data input and says NeoPixel data moves in the indicated direction.
Type · signal - DOUT / DO
Optional NeoPixel data output at the end of the chain for adding more pixels. The Uberguide says DOUT or DO can be left unconnected if not chaining.
