And a big part of that success is due to the simplicity of their wiring - just one data wire, no matter how many pixels you've got. So no surprise they're \u003cem\u003eeverywhere\u003c\/em\u003e, blinking away in art exhibits, maker faire demos, DJ booths, decorations, and costumes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut, at some point, every NeoPixel'er bumps into the constraints of that single-data-wire: the timing is very picky and often time your code has to stop completely so that it can burst out the data without any interruptions. This requirement makes it tough to create fast-update lighting effects, and limits the number of pixels you can drive before other hardware peripherals get attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eResident pixel-pro Paint Your Dragon (who coined the name NeoPixel dont-cha-know!) took on this challenge and has succeeded gloriously.

That leaves you some RAM for your code to run in as well. Even though you could connect that many pixels, what we think this 'Wing does best is take advantage of DMA + the SAMD51's blazingly-fast 120MHz processor to manage animations for hundreds of pixels with ease\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo make connection easy, this FeatherWing does the level-shifting and pin arrangements for you. All 8 strands have a level shifter that converts the 3.3V logic level to 5V logic, there's a little switch-cap converter that generates the clean 5V power supply for you. Then a 100 ohm resistor in line after the buffer reduces ringing on long wiring runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou get two options for connecting NeoPixels:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 x 8 Header with ground and 5V-logic signal, in pairs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 x RJ-45 'Ethernet' Jacks, with ground and 5V-logic signal per twisted pair.
