Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VDD power_in Power supply pin; the maximum-rating supply range is +3.7 V to +5.3 V, and electrical characteristics are specified at VDD = 5 V.
2 DOUT output Control data signal output that re-transmits the serial data to the next cascaded pixel, with a transmission delay (DIN to DOUT) of at most 300 ns under the stated test conditions (CL = 15 pF, RL = 10 kΩ).
3 VSS power_in Ground pin serving as both signal ground and power ground, the 0 V reference for VDD and the logic levels.
4 DIN input Control data signal input; logic high requires 0.7VDD to VDD+0.7 V and logic low requires -0.3 V to 0.7 V.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:

  • Datasheet: Worldsemi datasheet (8 pp, sha256 d8d00bc9d951ce40, retrieved 2026-10-07, tier: lcsc)
  • Datasheet language: Chinese. Pin names, descriptions, and specs on this page were extracted and translated to English by ds2sf; the linked PDF is the manufacturer original.
  • Extractor: parts-factory 2.0.0 / extract_pins 0.3, primary claude-haiku-5-5 (text), consensus claude-sonnet-5-5 (agreed), guards: pin_guards 0.1: passed. Pins are checked against the footprint pad set and their cited datasheet pages before publish.
  • CAD: KiCad official libraries (CC-BY-SA 4.0).
