Adafruit NeoPixel NeoMatrix - 64 RGBW - Warm White - ~3000K

Put on your sunglasses before wiring up this LED matrix — 64 eye-blistering RGBW LEDs adorn the NeoPixel NeoMatrix for a blast of configurable colour and white. Arranged in an 8×8 matrix, each pixel is individually addressable with just one microcontroller pin, delivering 32-bit colour (8-bit PWM per channel across four channels).

This is the Warm White (~3000K) version, producing a soft, cosy warm tone ideal for ambient and decorative lighting. Each RGBW LED is split — one half is the familiar RGB, the other is a white LED with a yellow phosphor. Also available in Natural White (~4500K) and Cool White (~6000K).

Key Features

  • 64 RGBW LEDs – 8×8 individually addressable matrix with warm white (~3000K) dedicated white channel
  • 32-Bit Colour – 8-bit PWM per channel (R, G, B, W) for fine-grained colour and white control
  • Single-Pin Control – One data line drives all 64 LEDs using the NeoPixel protocol
  • Chainable – Connect DOUT of one panel to DIN of the next for larger displays
  • Two 3-Pin Ports – Input and output connectors for easy daisy-chaining

Power Requirements

  • Supply voltage: 5 V DC
  • Maximum draw: ~60 mA per pixel (up to 3.5 A per panel at full white)
  • Typical draw: 1–2 A per panel during normal use
Note: RGBW NeoPixels require RGBW-specific library support. Using a standard RGB NeoPixel library will produce incorrect colours. Ensure your library is configured for RGBW (SK6812) mode, with 4 bytes per pixel (256 bytes total for this panel).

Wiring

  • Connect 5V and GND from your power supply to the input port
  • Connect DIN to a digital pin on your microcontroller (pin 6 recommended for Arduino)
  • Ensure a common ground between the power supply and microcontroller
  • To chain panels: connect the first panel's DOUT to the second panel's DIN
Tip: When chaining four or more panels, you may run low on RAM on boards like the Arduino Uno (4 bytes per RGBW pixel). Consider a board with more memory for larger installations.

Compatibility

  • Works with real-time microcontrollers: Arduino (AVR, SAMD, nRF52), ESP32, ESP8266, Teensy, and more
  • Requires 8 MHz or faster processor
  • Supported by Adafruit's NeoPixel library (Arduino) and CircuitPython/MicroPython neopixel module
  • Not compatible with Linux-based SBCs or interpreted platforms (e.g., Basic Stamp) for direct driving

Ideal For

  • Warm ambient and decorative lighting
  • Colour and white LED signage and displays
  • Wearable electronics and costumes
  • Interactive art installations
  • Multi-panel tiled displays

Package Contents

  • 1× Adafruit NeoPixel NeoMatrix 64 RGBW – Warm White (~3000K)

Resources

  • NeoPixel Uberguide – Comprehensive guide covering wiring, libraries, and example code
