Here’s an example for controlling ordinary LEDs:

Ok ,thanks ,that’s a beginning.
are there more projects ,or sketches???
thanks

There’s loads of projects and sketches for FastLED out there. Not too many for ordinary LED’s though.

pity, maybe someone else, who knows what ???

I’m guessing almost everyone in the FastLED Users group is using FastLED with addressable LEDs. I can’t remember any posted examples of using it with non-addressable RGB or ordinary LEDs within the last year.

If you provide some info about your project someone here might be able to give you some tips or suggestions though.

The TM1809 is an addressable chip (TM1809/TM1804 - A common chipset for a while on aliexpress, has a similar protocol to the WS2811 and friends.). So I think just declare FastLED with that chip in your configuration. There is a wire diagram: http://www.ebay.com/itm/9-channels-RGB-bi-color-LED-driver-w-256-level-PWM-TM1809-arduino-RGB-LED-strip-/121039360751

yes wire diagram I had, but how you program the chip. :slight_smile:

but I have a couple of strips ws2812, in order.
Since I do what can be done ???

what is your exact question? Download FastLED 3.1 (you have to switch branch) from Github and install the library. It comes with plenty of example sketches.

yes ,but al samples for strips i think???
I wil for rgb led or simpel 5 mm led :slight_smile:

Thanks fastled 3.1 is nice library :slight_smile:
