Sk6812 rgbw support ? #88

Closed penfold42 closed 8 years ago

penfold42 commented 8 years ago

How hard is it to add support for these LEDs ?

Same bit signaling protocol but 32bits of data not 24

penfold42 commented 8 years ago

Not very by the looks of it.

I've ordered some LEDs but will have to test with the scope while I'm waiting.

Is anyone in a position to test this on real LEDs in the mean time ?

Support has now been added, please use the sk6812 branch for testing. I'm going to close this issue as a duplicate of #89. Thanks.
