LED Strips come in two designs, both on Flex Printed Circuits (FPC). 1. Simple LED + Resistor versions, typically with multiple parallel segments of three LEDs with matching resistors. 2. Digitally controllable with embedded controllers. Data is wired in series while power is paralleled by segments or pixels. Both have different and similar application challenges.

ESP8266 PWM RGB LED Strip with IRFZ44N

I've designed and built a circuit to PWM an LED strip from an ESP8266. I'm using the IRFZ44N for this as its \$V_{gs(th)}\$ is between 2V and 4V and has a low \$R_{DS(on)}\$. Everything seems to work, …

PWM RGB LED strip with IRLZ44N

So this is part 3 (or 4 depending how you look at it) in a series of questions I've had around PWMing an RGB LED strip from an ESP8266 (check my question history if you desire). I apparently keep misu …
