Support for WS2805 #764

Closed vrebagliati closed 6 months ago

vrebagliati commented 7 months ago

Describe the solution you'd like NeoPixelBus should support communicating with the WS2805 and manage the five channels it has.

Additional context The WS2805 is a relatively new chip, which is starting to show up in some commercial products. It would be useful to the community being able to control these new LED.

I've got a datasheet from here

And I found out about this new chip in this Aliexpress page.

Added NeoRgbwwFeature and common variant orders of the RGB elements.

May require a slower data rate, spec states 600Kbps. The APA106 could be used as the timing is the same but the reset time is not long enough.

Makuna commented 6 months ago

Add slower rate methods for Ws2805 if the normal Ws2812x doesn't work.
