Dos And Donts

Donts

  • Avoid Collisions Or Crushing: To prevent damage to the strip.,
  • Do Not Connect Or Disconnect While Powered: To prevent potential damage to the circuit.,
  • Minimize Wire Length Between Microcontroller And Strip: To reduce interference and noise.,
  • Do Not Fix On Sharp Edges: To prevent damage to the LED components.

Dos

  • Install On Smooth, Clean, And Dry Surfaces: To ensure proper adhesion and functionality.,
  • Cut Along Designated Lines: To separate the strip into usable sections.,
  • Use A 100 Μf Capacitor Between Ground And Power Lines: To protect the WS2812B from damage.,
  • Power The Strip Using Auxiliary Power Wires: For convenient and efficient power distribution.
Limits

Voltage Drop

  • Issue: As chains of LED strips get longer, the ends may become dimmer and redder due to voltage drop.,
  • Solution: Power shorter subsections separately if voltage drop becomes an issue.
How To Connect

Microcontroller Connection

  • Ground (White) Wire: Connect to microcontroller ground.,
  • Signal Input (Green) Wire: Connect to microcontroller I/O line.,
  • Power Using Auxiliary Wires: Connect to 5V power supply for efficient power distribution.
