High Density 8x8 Grid Addressable RGB LED Pixel Matrix

Create tiny yet highly-detailed and colorful LED displays with these high-density 8x8 addressable LED matrix boards from PMD Way, with free delivery. 

Each board is great value, and contains 64 WS2812B-type addressable RGB LEDs. You may also know of these LEDs as "NeoPixel". 

They're just under 26mm square (or 1" by 1") and have pads on the rear of the panel to solder power and data lines. 

LED power and data require 5 V DC. 

Using with Arduino

We recommend the FastLED library. 

Using with AVR

Suitable AVR library

Using with Raspberry Pi

Library for use with various languages such as python.

Powering your W2812B LEDs

At this point we want to note that you shouldn't power too many WS2812B LEDs from your development board. At full brightness, each W2812B can draw up to 60mA of current. 

So you need to think about an external 5V power supply with enough current for the LEDs in use. You can use the formula: Current = number of LEDs x 0.06. 

For example if you had a 4x4 LED matrix, that's 16 LEDs. Current = 16 x 0.06 = 0.96A, so you want a 5V DC 1A power supply.
