24V High CRI CCT DMX LED Strip 160leds/m

DMX LED Strip is a flexible led strip embedded with a DMX512 IC, which can be directly by controlled via the DMX512 digital communication protocol, a long-standing standard in professional lighting for film lighting effects, stage, architectural, and commercial environments etc.  DMX LED strip lights incorporate electronically addressable ICs , allowing every individual LED or group of LEDs to be programmed with precise control over color, brightness, timing, and lighting patterns across the entire strip.

SPI LED Strip uses a synchronous serial, communication protocol to transfer data between integrated circuits such as microcontrollers and peripherals. SPI Led strip Use the SPI protocol to control individual leds of addressable LED strips. After the LED strip directly receives the SPI signal, the color and brightness of the LED are adjusted accordingly.

When first see, you may see the effects of a DMX LED Strip seems the same might can be interchangeable, both can control individul leds or pixel groups, but in fact, there is a various difference between DMX LED Strip and SPI LED Strip.

The basical difference is that DMXLED Light strips can easily connect with other DMX devices allowing you to create lighting effects sequences, synchronized effects, and much more all from a single command center. Alternatively, for SPI LED Light Strips have the capability to easily adapt to different environments. They can connect to different controllers and offer flexibility in terms of programming options, but can not use directly with DMX devices, if need to use with DMX, must use with a DMX to SPI coverter.

For a DMX Strip, there are 5 wires, 2 for power + and GND, 2 for data (DMX+, DMX-), and a special wire for address writting. But a SPI controller normally have 3 or 4 wires, for 3 wires, is 2 for power + and GND, 1 for data. For some SPI strip with 4 wire version, some with  2 for power + and GND, 1 for data, and 1 for clock, and other version is with 2 for power + and GND and 2 for data and standby signal which with break down continue function. But for DMX LED Strip, all with break down continue function. 

As for signal transmission , DMX uses parallel signal transmission, strong anti-interference ability, suitable for long-distance transmission, but once a pixel point signal is interrupted, it will not affect the transmission of subsequent signals.

SPI uses series signal to transmit data, which is only suitable for short-distance transmission; Any IC damage will affect the continued transmission of the signal. These LED bars are ideal for short distances, but are not suitable for long distance transmission.

For control method, DMX Strip is Asynchronous serial but for SPI is Synchronous serial. The Data Transmission Speed for DMX LED Strip is around 200kbps-750kbps, but for a SPI strip >800kbps, up to 2 Mbps. Number of Channels, for DMX LED Strip can be up to 512 per universe, but for SPI LED Strip is limited(up to 1024). For signal transmisson distance, for DMX LED Strip is longer up to 500meter, but for SPI LED Strip is shorter, is limited by the signal.

Due to these difference between DMX LED Strip and SPI LED Strip, the applciation of these 2 kinds of strip is also different, according to the requirement of the project.

For our DMX LED Strip we offer DC5V, DC12V, DC24V and DC48V version, and for our DMX LED Strip, we offer single color, CCT(Bi-color/hybrid),  RGB, RGBW, RGBCCT.

For single color, one IC with 1 color for 1 channels,  and for Bi-colors,  1IC with 2 colors for 2 channels, RGB  1 IC with 3 colors for 3 channels, RGBW, 1 IC with 4 colors for 4 channels, and for RGBCCT, 1 IC with 5 colors for 5 channels. 

Yes, for our fault addrressing, you will get our DMX LED Strip, which has the fault addressing of each reel from the fist IC to the last IC with address 1,2,3,4,5...... , but when actual use, you may not use only 1 reels, you might connecting many reels together, in this way, you should rewrite the DMX address for the whole connection.
