This 4-pack of the breakout board for WS2812Bs provides an excellent way to add some 'pizazz' to your electronics projects! The through-hole pins allow you to have easy access to the Data In, Data Out, Power and Ground pins. Using the included header (soldering required), you can plug the board right into your breadboard. If you like Compatible with NeoPixel strips you'll definitely love these tiny breakout boards. You can use them to make a long chain that can be controlled using only 1 pin from your microcontroller and your favorite Compatible with NeoPixel library.
Each LED looks like a standard 5050 RGB LED, however instead of having individually controlled red/green/blue LEDs inside, there's a little chip that receives a high-speed PWM signal, which determines the LED color out of the more than 16 million possibilities!
To get started, power them using 5VDC and chain the boards together by tying the Data-Out pin of one to the Data-in of the next one in the chain. Note that these use "RGB" instead of the "GRB" format that's the default in most libraries, so you'll need to look at examples on how to adjust it to get the right colors!
