What is GS8208 addressable LED strip light?
The GS8208 is a 3-channel constant current LED driver with a breakpoint resume and internal display patterns which similar to WS2815. There are 3 open-drain constant current outputs, with a build-in PWM of grayscale. The range of input power is from +9V to +15V, and the voltage-endurance of the LED port is +12V, there is a built-in 12bits GAMMA correction module. PWM maximum refresh frequency is 8kHz.
How do GS8208 digital addressable LEDs work?
The GS8208 IC uses the return to zero code signal as the transmission mode, which can control the output current channel by channel and cascade infinitely, every cuttable part displays a different effect. GS8208 provides double-signal data input as redundant control, which ensures the transmission of the signal if any single chip damages. In the absence of signal input, GS8208 displays the built-in display patterns that are suitable for those applications without a controller. There is built-in power-on and power-off protection in the drive, which can enhance the service life of the chip. It also has the automatic test function while power on, which is convenient for the customer to test.
