  • 8bit or 16-bit pixel LED strip?

    What is 8bit and 16bit, in the context of LED strip lights and dimming? When LED strip lights are controlled using a LED receiver (such as as DMX receiver), they are programmed to dim from maximum to minimum levels of brightness/colour/etc in 255 steps. This the standard for what is called 8bit c...
