SK6812 compatibility #6

Closed semaf closed 7 years ago

semaf commented 7 years ago

Would you add compatibility for SK6812 LED String to control the second LED (Warmwhite, Coldwhite)? At least the 4th bit is controlling the second LED.

Dear @semaf,

I don't have SK6812 available to try that out, but the neopixel library should support them rudimentary, You'll find some informations here: https://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=364208.0

But maybe you noticed that there are two forks of McLighting that make use of the FastLED library that should support the SK6812 better: https://github.com/russp81/LEDLAMP_FASTLEDs and: https://github.com/jake-b/Griswold-LED-Controller

Thanks for your reply!

Found also with Adafruit Neopixel Library a sample Code which is working for me. https://forum.pjrc.com/threads/34579-Teensy-OctoWS2811-Adalight-SK6812RGBW-LEDs-Please-Help?s=20729c070b2eac3b8f2996015de6c343&p=104934&viewfull=1#post104934
