Fully compatible with single-color and 1-wire addressable RGB LEDs (WS2811/12/13/15, SK6812). XIAO Compatibility for Smart Control: Fits all Seeed XIAO boards. Pair with XIAO ESP32 (C3/S3/C6) for WLED app control (colors, effects, animations) and seamless Home Assistant/ESPHome smart home integration. ) to easily add interactive, environment-responsive lighting effects.

1mm DC barrel jack (EU/US adapters) or direct wiring, ideal for both temporary and permanent setups. Compact Form Factor: Space-efficient design allows for inconspicuous installation in tight spaces directly alongside LED strips without sacrificing functionality.

Comprehensive Protection: Built-in overcurrent, overvoltage, overtemperature, and short-circuit protection ensures safe, reliable operation and long component life. Hardware Overview: For 5 V LED strips: each LED can draw up to ~50 mA at full brightness. 5 A at full brightness.

For 12 V LED strips driven via the driver board: ensure the external 12 V power supply can provide at least 2 A (or more depending on strip length) as per driver spec. Always ensure common ground between the XIAO board and the LED power supply to avoid signal issues. For long LED runs, consider splitting power injection (powering from multiple points) to avoid voltage drop and uneven brightness.

Mini-Project: Make Your Own Reactive Light Strip This is a simple project to build an interactive, reactive light strip for music lighting, ambient mood lighting, or interactive desk lighting. Mount your XIAO board on the LED Driver Board for XIAO. Connect a 5 V or 12 V addressable RGB strip (like WS2812 / WS2812B / WS2813 / WS2815), matching the voltage to strip specs. 5 A draw if using 5 V.

Ensure a shared ground between the strip’s power supply and the XIAO board to maintain a common reference for data signals. Upload a control sketch (Arduino + libraries like FastLED or Adafruit NeoPixel) to your XIAO to drive dynamic animations like fades, color cycles, reactive patterns, etc. g. pulse with music, change color when motion detected, or adjust brightness based on ambient light.

Use XIAO’s GPIO or Grove interface as supported by the driver board. Test and tune brightness and animation speed for best results while ensuring power draw stays within safe supply limits. Tiny board, huge potential – start building today!
