WS2812 -> generic addressable LED

#1 · March 20, 2024, 8:28 am

Might it be possible to have the timing and colour scheme for the WS2812-derivates be adjustable?

The timing would be great to have adjustable in a wider range.
For the colour scheme, I found RGB for WS2811, GRB for WS2812b, and RGBW with an additional white channel for SK6812RGBW.

By this, most of the other variants might also be simulateable.

That seems like an exelent idea.
It will allow to use many LED Strip models in SimulIDE.

I will do it after version 1.1.0 stable is released (March 25).
