RGB LED Add-On Module for ACROME SMD Products

• SMD Add-On Module for Red-Green-Blue (RGB) tri-color LED
• Flexible, easy-to-use and self-powered through the SMD network
• Quickly test functionality and change the LED Colors with SMD UI software
• No soldering, wire stripping or low-level MCU code required

ACROME SMD (Smart Motion Devices) products are modular products designed to simplify the creation of robotics and mechatronics systems with a holistic electronics, mechanics and software approach. See https://acrome.gitbook.io/acrome-smd-docs for more details about SMD products.

The RGB LED Add-On module is a specifically designed board for robotics projects based on SMD products. This module is connected to the Add-On module socket of the SMD Red BDC Motor Driver. It is controlled via an optimized I2C communication protocol.

Due to the daisychain connection capabilities, you can add as many LED modules as you want, thanks to the RJ-45 sockets with power rail inside (Power over RJ45), and CAT5/6 cables, you can place sensors anywhere in your application and access them from a central location (ie. your own controller, such as Arduino, Raspberry Pi or PC). The SMD add-on modules share a common physical size, hence multiple modules can be stacked up/down using the provided M3 mounting pads and input-out sockets. Each add-on module has its own microcontroller, enabling onboard pre-processing and buffering.

Note: This product requires other SMD modules, power source (9-16V), a gateway module and a controller to operate. Consider purchasing SMD RED Starter Kit or Education Kit if you are using SMD products for the first time:
