What LED beads are used for smart home indicator lights? Selection scheme for smart home indicator lights

The indicator lights of smart home devices (smart speakers, floor sweepers, smart locks, gateways) are an important part of human-computer interaction, and breathing lights, circular lights, and colorful status lights have become standard. Hongcheng Optoelectronics provides a full range of intelligent indication solutions from single and dual color to RGB iridescence.

Key points for selecting smart home indicator lights

• RGB Illusion: Choose built-in IC Illusion LED beads (2121/2020/0807) for status colorful display, single line control, saving MCU pins.
• Breathing effect: Ordinary LED beads can be combined with PWM to achieve breathing light, and choosing a matte gel provides a softer light effect.
• Side illumination: Choose 4020/0802 side illumination patch for ultra-thin body, with hidden light output.
• Low power consumption: Choose a 2mA low current model for battery devices.
• Small package: Choose 0603/0402 patch for compact structure.
