Datasheets disagree: the Electrical Characteristics table says ‘RES: low voltage time above 250 us’ while the description (p1) and the waveform say the data latches after a >50 us low level; the mechanical drawing shows 1.05 mm on the end view and 1.7 mm on the front view, so no single height is recorded. The sheet header says ‘Top View LEDs’ although the title and drawing are a side-view PLCC-6 in white; viewing angle 100-140 (typ 120 deg), VDD abs max 6.5 V, power dissipation <400 mW. Timing 300 / 900 / 900 / 300 ns +/-0.15 us. LCSC stock 0 on 2026-10-15.

Outline and pin positions checked against the manufacturer datasheet (C5567725 C4516SDWN3S1-RGBC0120-2H v4 p6). Six pads in one row along the mounting edge, numbered 1 to 6 left to right in the front view (3.24 mm across the pad row, 0.65 mm pitch, 0.4 mm wide; the soldering pattern is 0.99 mm long). Pins 3 and 4 are both 'Anode'. What this means.
