Overview

This repository includes the Eagle design files (schematics and layout) for our WS2812 RGB LED Shield for the Arduino Uno. The shield design is based on the popular WS2812 ‘smart’ LED package, which contains an embedded, costant-current LED driver (the WS2811).

The shield includes 40 WS2812 LEDs in a 5x8 array configuration. But, contrary to a traditional LED matrix, the shield uses a single data line (Digital Pin 8) from the Arduino to control brightness and color! The shield also includes a power terminal for using an external supply.

The firmware files along with code samples are also included in this repository.
