<< NEORV32 - Smart LED (WS2811/WS2812) Interface (NEOLED) >>

*

Hardware interface for direct control of "smart LEDs" using an asynchronous serial data

line. Compatible with the WS2811 and WS2812 LEDs.

#

NeoPixel-compatible, RGB (24-bit) and RGBW (32-bit) modes supported (in "parallel")

(TM) "NeoPixel" is a trademark of Adafruit Industries.

#

The interface uses a programmable carrier frequency (800 KHz for the WS2812 LEDs)

configurable via the control register's clock prescaler bits (ctrl_clksel*_c) and the period

length configuration bits (ctrl_t_tot_*_c). "high-times" for sending a ZERO or a ONE bit are

configured using the ctrl_t_0h_c and ctrl_t_1h_c bits, respectively. 32-bit transfers

(for RGBW modules) and 24-bit transfers (for RGB modules) are supported via ctrl_mode__c.

#

The device features a TX buffer (FIFO) with entries. An IRQ is triggered if the

FIFO falls below "half-full" fill level.
