I hear there is another tinyest led now,SK6805-EC15 and APA102-1515 LED,the size both is 1.5*1.5mm,SK6805-EC15 has the same protocol with SK6812,APA102-1515 has data and clock dual signal.The protocol is the same with APA102.It can be used widely.

I have used many of the APA addressable LEDs including the small APA102-1515 that I brough from here http://www.neon-world.com/en/product.php

I mainly used them on a RPi because they have a clock line and can be driven from a SPI bus very easy without needing the precise timing of other addressable LEDs

I found the little 1515 were great for small robot projects :slight_smile:
