Nice, I have a hobby project for something similar (SK6812, which is basically WS2812 with an extra white channel). I will switch to this work and extend it once it lands :) [...] > > + default-intensity: > > + description: | > > + An array of 3 integer specifying the default intensity of each color > > + components in this LED. <255 255 255> if unspecified. > > + $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32-array > > + minItems: 3 > > Drop minItems.... but: > > > + maxItems: 3 > > + items: > > + minimum: 0 > > + maximum: 255 > > default: 255 I would argue, that the default should be 0 (off) instead of 255 (full power). > What controls the intensity? Don't you have PWM there? WS2812 is a RGB led, which contains a small Microcontroller. The µC takes 24 byte intensity data from a serial input and then passes on any following bits to the next LED. SPI clk and chip-select are ignored (chip-select support can be trivially added though). You can find them everywhere nowadays, since they are quite cheap (a few cents per LED) and need only one MOSI pin to control hundreds of LEDs. [...] -- Sebastian
