These 3-channel constant current LED drivers are great for controlling chains of RGB LEDs. The IC is controlled by a 2-wire serial control scheme that allows multiple ICs to be chained together.
Use a handful of these ICs in conjunction with some RGB LEDs to make color displays, or with regular LEDs for a monochrome display three times the size. Or just the WS2801 to free up PWM pins on your microntroller by controlling multiple LEDs with two pins.
Features:
- 2-wire control scheme reduces system cost
- Built-in PWM dimming scheme for each channel
- PWM free-run capability
- Power supply voltage 3.3-5.5v
- Supports both constant current and constant voltage drive modes
- Wide constant current range from 5-150mA
Application:
- LED Strip
- Lightings
- Addressable RGB LED
