5V Addressable LED Strip

What is the difference between a 5V and 12V addressable LED strip?

A 5V addressable LED strip operates at a lower voltage than a 12V addressable LED strip. This means that it requires less power to operate and can be powered by a USB port or small battery pack, so it can be portable.

12V addressable LED strip requires more power to operate and typically requires a larger power supply. However, it can support more LEDs and may be brighter and more color accurate than a 5V addressable LED strip.

Applications and Uses

5V addressable LED strips are suitable for precisely controlled, dynamically animated LED lighting projects. For example: holiday decorative lighting, interactive displays, under-cabinet lighting, game room lighting, and wearable devices.

Artistic lighting and LED DIY enthusiasts like to use 5V addressable LED strips to control individual LEDs to create complex lighting effects.

WS2812
The WS2812 is one of the most commonly used 5V addressable RGB LED strips with a built-in controller IC. The WS2812 is often used in DIY projects, home decoration, and small-scale installations because of its simple single-wire data connection and ease of use. This strip is colorful, but its power requirements may limit the length before power injection is required.

WS2813
The WS2813 is an upgraded version of the WS2812. The WS2813 adds a data backup line to ensure continued use even if one LED is damaged. That is, if one part fails, the rest of the strip will continue to work normally. This makes it more reliable for large lighting projects. This “breakpoint resume” feature makes the WS2813 a great choice for decorative lighting, interactive displays, and projects that require higher reliability.

SK9822
The SK9822 is a high-speed RGB addressable LED strip. Its design is similar to the APA102 with a dual-wire data system (data and clock lines). This design allows for faster refresh rates and smoother color effects. The SK9822 offers 32-bit color depth for applications that require fast data transmission and high-resolution effects, such as LED displays and animations.

APA102
The APA102 (also known as DotStar) uses a dual-wire system to separate the clock and data signals. The APA102 is widely used in lighting projects that require detailed effects, such as wearable LED clothing, complex light shows, and animated pixel mapping. Its higher refresh rate makes it suitable for video walls and light art lighting.

SK6812
The SK6812 is an addressable RGBW LED strip with a dedicated white channel in addition to the standard RGB channels. True white light output allows for better color-mixed lighting effects. SK6812 should be used in ambient lighting, architectural projects or artistic lighting installations.
