Lumenati 4-Pack - SparkFun USA

SparkFun Lumenati 4-pack is a coin-sized board equipped with four APA102C LEDs surrounding the outer edge. The 4-pack board can be daisy-chained with other Lumenati boards.The APA102C LEDs on each board with numbers indicating their position in the sequence to write code more easily.The APA102C addressable LEDs operate on +5V power input, as well as 0–5V logic levels for clock and data, and employ a 2-wire communication protocol consisting of a clock line and a data line. While this requires one more wire than standard WS2812B LEDs, the advantage is that the communication with the LEDs becomes somewhat timing-independent, allowing to run these directly off of a Raspberry Pi or other single-board computer that doesn’t normally allow for a long, precisely timed data stream without the use of additional hardware.

Note: This product only includes one board, not four. The term “4-pack” refers to there being four APA102C LEDs equipped to the Lumenati.
