Compatibility

  • protocol compatible WS2812B-V5

    T0H 220-380 ns, T0L 580-1000 ns, T1H 580-1000 ns and a 280 us reset are the windows the ws2812b-v5 protocol records; the AOP T1L window is wider (0.22-1.0 us against 580 ns-1 us). The sheets never mention WorldSemi. source ↗

Dating evidence

Nobody announces these parts, so this records what we can actually cite rather than a release date. Library support proves only that the part existed by that date.
