8X32 flexible rgb led pixel matrix apa102 brighter than ws2812b led matrix

 1. For advanced APA102C fans, we how have a bendable, flexible 8x32 APA102C RGB LED Matrix! Control all 256 ultra-bright LEDs using only 2 microcontroller pins, set each LED as you wish to scroll messages or draw little images. This matrix has a thick flexible PCB backing that can be gently bent and curved around surfaces. 

2.These are the same integrated LEDs that are used in our addressable APA102c strips. Rather than ws2812b led matrix, this matrix use apa102 leds, which use 2-wire protocl ( DAT, CLK) that is less timing-specific and has high-frequency (800 KHZ) PWM for smoother color blending. 

3. This Flexible LED matrix has 32 pixels in each of its 8 lines, 256 LEDs in total. This is a continuous strip of LEDs making it easy to programme for displays and is flexible so can be wrapped around objects and works with a 5V power supply.

4.Don't forget, with 256 LEDs, you could use over 15A of current if you turn on all the LEDs on to white (which we really do not recommend because we don't think the flex PCB can handle that much current). 

5. Like ws2812b , apa102 c leds are 5050 packing LEDs with an embedded microcontroller inside the LED. You can set the color/brightness of each LED TO 24-bit color (8 bits each red, green and blue). Each LED acts like a shit register , reading incoming color data on the input pins, and the shifting the previous color data out on the output pin. 

6. Please note: Flexible PCBs are not designed for repeated flexing! While we think this product may work in wearables or other situations where the martix is bent around.

This is for advanced users only, who already know how to use ws2812b and are comfortable with the hifh current requirements and protecting the matrix from damage.
