The NeoPixel Mini PCBs are among the smallest addressable RGB LED breakouts available. Each tiny board measures just 8 × 10 mm and features two sets of three solder pads on the back for easy wiring. The pixels are chainable — you only need one digital pin to control as many LEDs as you like.

Each NeoPixel includes a built-in constant-current driver, providing full 24-bit colour with automatic PWM. The constant-current design means the LEDs maintain consistent brightness even as battery voltage fluctuates. Using ribbon cable, pixels can be spaced up to approximately 150 mm (6″) apart before signal integrity becomes a concern.
