16 x WS2812 Round RGB LED Module

The 16× WS2812 Round RGB LED Module is a circular addressable LED ring made using WS2812 (WS2812B) smart RGB LEDs. Each LED has a built-in driver IC, enabling individual control of color and brightness through a single data line. Its round shape is ideal for radial lighting effects, visual indicators, and decorative illumination in electronics and DIY projects.
