Arduino Modulino® Pixels

Arduino Modulino^® Pixels is a vibrant and compact RGB LED module, driven by an on-board STM32C011F4 microcontroller (MCU), designed to bring dynamic visual feedback to Arduino projects. Equipped with eight individually addressable LC8822-2020 RGB LEDs, the Modulino Pixels allows for full-color lighting effects controlled via the I²C interface. These integrated LEDs enable smooth animations, status indicators, or decorative lighting. The onboard MCU handles LED control, reducing the processing load on the main board. With a solderless Qwiic connector and stackable design, the Arduino Modulino Pixels is ideal for educational, prototyping, and creative applications where visual expression and modularity are key.
