Sew a little sparkle into your wearable project with an Adafruit LED Sequin. Each of the five included LEDs shows a single color. There's one of each of the following colors: warm white, ruby red, royal blue, emerald green, and rose pink.


Connect 3 to 6VDC to the + pin and ground to the - pin, and the LED on the board will light up. You can make the LEDs fade and twinkle by using the PWM (a.k.a. analogWrite) functionality of a Gemma or Flora, or connect directly to a digital I/O pin of a microcontroller to turn on and off. Or even skip the micro altogether, and power directly from a LiPoly, coin cell or battery pack.

This order comes with 5 different color "1206 size" LEDs, matched with a resistor. When powered from 3.3V they draw about 5mA so you can usually put up to 4 or 5 in parallel on a single microcontroller pin.
