Würth Releases LEDs with Integrated Controllers
Würth Elektronik's WL-ICLED series combines a red, green and blue LED with a programmable controller IC.
Available in four designs (2020 Chip LED compact, 3210 Chip LED Side View, 2121 PLCC6 with bypass and 5050 PLCC4) and is individually controllable in pixel color and brightness levels from 0-100%. Is capable of more than 16 million different color and brightness levels and is compatible with open source libraries such as FastLED. Requires fewer components (such as series resistors), and is more compact than solutions with separate LEDs. Also feature an MSL3 moisture sensitivity level, with some models complying with protection class IPx7. Includes gold plating on ‘Chip LED’ models and silver coating for PLCC models for better solderability. Applications include signal control systems, full-color matrix displays, audio and gaming systems, indoor lighting and displays on e-mobility charging stations.
