Product Description

WS2812B RGB LED Flexible 16x16 Pixel Panel Matrix Screen

Individually Addressable LED Display Module

The WS2812B RGB LED Flexible 16x16 Pixel Panel is a highquality, individually addressable LED matrix featuring 256 bright RGB LEDs in a 16x16 square arrangement. Each LED contains a builtin WS2812B control IC, allowing independent color and brightness control of every pixel. Perfect for creating stunning displays, animations, scrolling text, and visual effects with Arduino, ESP32, and other microcontrollers.

256 individually addressable LEDs in 16x16 matrix
Requires DC 5V power supply - calculate current needs
Maximum current: 256 x 60mA = 15.36A at full white brightness
