With a wide operating voltage of 3.7V-5.5V and robust ESD protection, this LED ensures reliable performance in harsh environments. Perfect for ultra-thin light boxes, edge-lit signs, keyboard backlighting, and creative DIY projects, the SK6805SIDE combines high brightness, low power consumption, and seamless cascading capabilities. Elevate your lighting solutions with this versatile, easy-to-use chip that brings dynamic visual effects to life.
Ultra-Compact Side-Emitting Design: Features a tiny 4818 (4.8x1.8mm) SMD footprint with a 90-degree side-view beam angle, ideal for slim profiles and edge-lit applications.
Built-in IC for Individual Control: Integrates a CMOS control chip, allowing each LED to be addressed independently for complex, pixel-level RGB color effects.
Standard Single-Wire Protocol: Fully compatible with WS2812/SK6812 data protocols (800kbps), ensuring easy integration with Arduino, ESP32, and mainstream controllers.
High Reliability & Efficiency: Operates on 3.7V-5.5V with a static current of only 0.35mA and features HBM 2000V ESD protection for stable, long-term use.
Seamless Cascade Capability: Supports automatic data reshaping and forwarding via DOUT, enabling thousands of LEDs to be connected in series without signal degradation.
