smartled-spin

This is a P8X32A/Propeller driver object for various model smart/addressable LED arrays (e.g., NeoPixels)

IMPORTANT: This software is meant to be used with the spin-standard-library (P8X32A) or p2-spin-standard-library (P2X8C4M64P). Please install the applicable library first before attempting to use this code, otherwise you will be missing several files required to build the project.

Salient Features

  • Supports WS2811, WS2812, WS2812B, WS2813, SK6812 (RGB and RGBW), and TM1803-based LED arrays
  • Integration with generic bitmap graphics library

Requirements

P1/SPIN1:

  • 80MHz Fsys
  • spin-standard-library
  • 1 extra core/cog for the PASM SmartLED engine
  • graphics.common.spinh (provided by spin-standard-library)

P2/SPIN2:

  • 20MHz Fsys minimum
  • p2-spin-standard-library
  • graphics.common.spin2h (provided by p2-spin-standard-library)

Compiler Compatibility

Processor Language Compiler Backend Status
P1 SPIN1 FlexSpin (6.9.4) Bytecode OK
P1 SPIN1 FlexSpin (6.9.4) Native/PASM OK
P2 SPIN2 FlexSpin (6.9.4) NuCode OK
P2 SPIN2 FlexSpin (6.9.4) Native/PASM2 OK

(other versions or toolchains not listed are not supported, and may or may not work)

Hardware compatibility

  • Tested with WS2812 (GRB), SK6812 (GRBW)

Limitations

  • TBD
