Nationstar’s 1.0 mm 16-bit pixel: a driver-and-LED in one package with a 4.2-5.5 V supply, over-voltage protection and 3.3 V logic input. The part is not a drop-in for any 8-bit 1010 part: data words are 16 bits per colour (48 bits per pixel) with Code 0 = 320 ns high / 960 ns low and Code 1 = the reverse.

The sheet’s pin sequence (DI, VCC, GND, DO) goes down the left column then the right, not around the package, so a footprint taken from a ring-numbered 1010 would be wrong. The product design page draws DI top-left, VCC bottom-left, GND top-right, DO bottom-right.

Datasheets disagree (quiescent current 760 uA in the overview, 270/360 uA in the table; dual-path text with a single DI/DO) - see the protocol page. LCSC stock 0 on 2026-10-15, so the listing may be a stocked-out or discontinued SKU.

Outline and pin positions checked against the manufacturer datasheet (C22461778 TBA-C1010MB-J2I16 spec, PDF p4 (product design: front view, see-through view, schematic, reference pads) and p5 (pin table)). Not a ring: pins 1 and 2 run down the LEFT column (1 DI top, 2 VCC bottom), pins 3 and 4 down the RIGHT column (3 GND top, 4 DO bottom). The hatched bar between GND and DO is the sheet's polarity mark. Pad size and pitch from the see-through view's labels (0.3 mm pad, 0.33 mm gap); the reference land pattern is four 0.4 mm pads 0.3 mm apart. Approximate. What this means.
