We know this looks like a lot of our other LEDs, but it's not! This is a PTH Addressable RGB LED with a WS2812 control IC built right into the LED. This PTH version is incredibly similar to its SMD cousin, except it is breadboard friendly and a lot simpler to solder into your project and is in a diffused 8mm package. This RGB LED has the control IC moved into the actual LED, so you can control 16 millions colours with 256 brightness using just single data line! They're great when you have limited I/O for multiple RGB LEDs.
If you are looking for a great addressable LED in the more common LED form factor, then this is the perfect choice for you.
