Component

RGB LED driver12 V3-channelconstant current8-bit PWMsingle-wire cascadeFSOP-8

WS2808F is a 12 V three-channel RGB LED driver for cascaded pixel lighting, with 8-bit PWM dimming, 24-bit GRB data, and approximately 12 mA typical current per output.

Best for

  • 12 V RGB LED strings
  • Cascaded decorative pixel lighting
  • RGB LED modules and strips

Avoid if

  • Applications requiring documented automotive qualification
  • Designs needing confirmed RoHS or REACH declarations
  • Systems requiring a fully unambiguous maximum serial-data-rate specification

Check before use

  • Verify LED topology and voltage headroom at 12 V
  • Use GRB order with most-significant bit first
  • Hold DIN low for at least 280 µs to latch a frame
  • Confirm communication margin against the conflicting data-rate statements
