This is a section of the basic RGB tape that has individual red, green and blue LEDs. I'd always just assumed that the whole length was in sections of nine LEDs 3 red, 3 green and 3 blue with matching resistors in each section.
Recently I was playing about with a section of the tape and reduced the voltage to dim it a bit. As the voltage went down it became obvious that there were sections of nine and sections of six LEDs alternating along the strip.
I can only guess that this is a result of using a standard manufacturing size (500mm) of strip section, and having to adjust the series multiples to fit within that length.

Hey, i recently bought a LED strip like the one you got, not the 50/50 kind. And when i plug it into the power supply it defaults to Blue, and the controller does not affect it. Could it be a problem with the microcontroller or maybe the IR sensor?
I bought a similar led tape with individual red green blue leds and it comes with a power supply (8 programs mini controller) and it has like modes for the leds (flashing, waves, etc) but it doesn't have the basic features like solid red or solid green or solid blue how can that be fixed?
Nice video, thanks for sharing. Total power dissipated by the 2 diode array is 252 mW with 132 mW on resistor, while the total power dissipated by the 3 diode array is 240 mW with 60 mW on resistor, that's why the 3 diode array is more efficient. The current is 20mA for both groups.
I have quite a few of these Leds rgb and found the 3528 to be better than the 5050 tapes some of the 5050 tapes I've had seem to warm up a bit too much for my liking especially the ip65 as they are covered in a silicon type rubber and it actually smells like warming plastic .although I think they are still safe the smell is not that nice I think the 50000 hrs is vastly reduced because of the extra heat ….great tutorials and teardowns Clive
What do you think of the 7020 LEDs ?
hey clive do you have a personal facebook or somewhere i could get in touch with you about these leds might have something for you
