These WS2812B addressable RGB LEDs pack a full-colour LED and integrated control circuit into a standard 5050 (5×5mm) SMD package. Each LED is individually controllable with 256 brightness levels per colour channel, giving you over 16.7 million possible colour combinations from a single data line.

The WS2812B uses a simple 4-pin design (power, ground, data in, data out), making it easy to chain multiple LEDs together. Sold as a strip of 10 individual LEDs for soldering into your own PCB designs.
