NeoPixel

Matrices

NeoPixel matrices are two-dimensional grids of NeoPixels, all controlled from a single microcontroller pin.

Rigid 8x8 NeoPixel Matrices

Like NeoPixel rings, these 64-pixel matrices are assembled on a rigid printed circuit board and are available in both

RGB and RGBW varieties.

All measure 71 millimeters (2.8 inches) square and about 3.6 mm thick. There are several mounting holes, and the

DOUT pin allows multiple matrices to be linked in series.

RGB NeoPixels are the most affordable and can produce millions of color combinations.

RGBW NeoPixels offer an eye-pleasing “true” white in addition to RGB. These are available in three different color

temperaures:

Cool white: approximately 6000 Kelvin (K).

Neutral: approx 4500K.

Warm white: approx. 3000K.

RGBW pixels incorporate a translucent diffuser layer to help mix and soften the light output. This makes them appear

less intense than RGB pixels (which are “water clear”), but it’s really the same LEDs inside.
