Each LED delivers 256-level grayscale per channel and a 4kHz PWM refresh rate, ensuring flicker-free, vibrant color mixing for stunning “dream color” effects. With a wide 120° viewing angle and optimized optical design, it’s perfect for edge-lit applications, light strips, keyboard backlighting, and architectural accents. Operating at 3.7–5.5V with low static current (0.5mA), it supports stable long-distance transmission and ESD protection up to 2000V. Whether you're building smart lighting, DIY projects, or commercial displays, the SK6808SIDE-A combines miniaturization, reliability, and brilliant color performance in one easy-to-use package.
Side-Emitting & Ultra-Compact: 4.0×2.0×1.6mm SMD package with 120° side-view beam angle, ideal for edge lighting, narrow light strips, and space-constrained designs.
Built-in IC & Single-Wire Control: Integrated driver IC with one-data-line interface, fully compatible with WS2812/SK6812 timing—no external controller needed.
Vibrant Full-Color & High PWM: 256-level grayscale per R/G/B channel and ~4kHz PWM frequency for smooth, flicker-free color transitions and true “dream color” effects.
Cascadable & Stable Transmission: DIN→DOUT cascade supports 1024+ pixels at 30fps; 800Kbps data rate with reset code for reliable long-chain operation.
Low Power & Robust Design: Operates at 3.7–5.5V with only 0.5mA static current; 2000V ESD protection and -40°C to +85°C operating range for industrial durability.
