![]() The limits are therefore in the range of 5.5 to 7.5V. When looking at the data sheet, it is noticeable that the WS2812 requires an operating voltage (Vcc and Vdd) of 6 - 7V, +/- 0.5V. Thanks for pointing out / wanting to make Mobiflight more effective with WS2812 by designing simulator (LED) displays similar to MAX7219. Thoughts? I'm happy to provide more context if it helps, or assist with adding this capability We could then create output mappings by defining the index of the LED in the chain we want to control, and setting the RGB values for that LED as 0-255 for each R, G, B channel. Similar to adding an LED module, we'd simply need to specify the data pin and the number of WS2812 LEDs (likely as a numeric input, not a dropdown since WS2812's can support very long chains). Daisy-chaining addressable LED's would drastically reduce the number of required output pins, much like we already can do with the MAX7219 7-segment displays, and provide a lot of flexibility with respect to bulb color. ![]() Having used WS2812's (sometimes known as "NeoPixels") for several other large electronics projects, it seems that they'd be a perfect fit here. ![]() In designing my PCB's to use with MobiFlight, I'm struck by the number of outputs required to drive LEDs. ![]() Forgive me if there's a different place we should put feature requests and/or suggestions. ![]()
