Part Verification and Datasheet Review

I’ll inspect the part metadata, schematic symbol, footprint, and existing properties, then look up the official datasheet if needed and update the Datasheet field before cross-checking pins and specs.
The part already has a Datasheet URL set, so I’m using that for verification and won’t change it unless it proves incorrect.
Completed the part review and created a report: Part Verification — SK6812MINIRGBW-NW-P6-A.
Open items:
  • Datasheet URL was already set and appears valid; no update was needed.
  • Symbol pinout matches the datasheet.
  • Flagged issues: voltage typo in description, PLCC4 ambiguity vs SMD-6P, unspecified pin types, and pad geometry could not be numerically verified from the available layout output.
Suggested next steps:
  1. Fix the description/package wording.
  2. Add clearer pin descriptions/types for NC, GND, DIN, DOUT, and VDD pins.
  3. If you have the exact recommended land pattern image/table, I can do a stricter footprint-dimension check.

Datasheet source check
The existing Datasheet URL points to a TME-hosted OPSCO datasheet for the SK6812MINIRGBW-XX-P6-A-000 family. The datasheet query tool could not download the TME PDF due to a network error, so I cross-checked via web search results and the matching LCSC-hosted datasheet copy for the same OPSCO family/product code.
Official/authoritative references found:
  • TME datasheet: https://www.tme.eu/Document/3466e77db733da4cb88774d7b3acd193/SK6812MINIRGBW-XX-P6-A-0000.pdf
  • LCSC matching datasheet copy: https://datasheet.lcsc.com/datasheet/pdf/a2bc892b0af22abe04f5c8a837afb921.pdf?productCode=C7423107
  • LCSC part page: OPSCO SK6812MINIRGBW-NW-P6, LCSC C7423107
  • TME product page: exact MPN SK6812MINIRGBW-NW-P6-A
Because the existing Datasheet URL is valid and corresponds to the exact OPSCO family, no Datasheet property update was required.

2GNDGroundGND, Pin Number 2Match
3DINData inputDIN, Pin Number 3Match

5DOUTData outputDOUT, Pin Number 5Match
6VDDPowerVDD_2, Pin Number 6Match electrically, name differs because duplicate VDD terminals need unique designators
Symbol orientation also matches the datasheet top-view side ordering: pins 1/2/3 on the left and pins 6/5/4 on the right.
Footprint/package cross-check
Observed PCB/layout data:
  • Six PCB pad nodes exist and are designator-matched to the six schematic terminals: NC, GND, DIN, VDD_1, DOUT, VDD_2.
  • Silkscreen/body outline visible at approximately 3.7 mm × 3.5 mm, consistent with the SK6812MINIRGBW 3535 / 3.5 × 3.7 mm package family.
  • Pin-1 indicator/marker is present near the top-left side of the package.
Datasheet/package references found:
  • Package: SMD-6P / 3535-class RGBW addressable LED.
  • Product page dimensions: approximately 3.5 × 3.7 × 1.9 mm.
  • Recommended footprint uses the same top-view pin ordering as the schematic: left side pins 1/2/3 and right side pins 6/5/4.
Limitation: the layout inspection output exposed pad node names but not all pad geometry dimensions, so I could verify pad count, pad naming, general package outline, and orientation, but not numerically confirm each copper pad dimension against the recommended land pattern.
Key specs from datasheet/search cross-check
  • Device type: programmable/addressable RGBW LED with integrated controller.
  • Color variant: NW / natural white, 3800–4200 K.
  • Supply voltage: 3.7–5.5 V.
  • Package: SMD-6P, 3535 / approximately 3.5 × 3.7 × 1.9 mm.
  • Data rate: 800 kbps class one-wire protocol.
  • PWM frequency: approximately 4 kHz.
  • Data format: 32-bit RGBW, MSB first, GRBW byte order.
  • Reset low time: >200 µs.
  • Typical channel current values found: RGB channels about 8 mA each, white channel about 16.5 mA.
Mismatches / issues flagged
  1. Project description voltage typo: description says 3.75.5VDC; this should be 3.7–5.5 VDC.
  2. Package naming ambiguity: description says PLCC4, but the part and footprint are six-pad / SMD-6P. The package should be described as SMD-6P / 3535 rather than PLCC4 unless retained only as a broad LED package family label.
  3. Pin Type fields are all Unspecified: pin functions are clear from terminal names, but metadata would be cleaner if set to: NC = Passive/Unspecified or NC, GND/VDD = Power, DIN = Input, DOUT = Output.
  4. Duplicate VDD terminal naming is acceptable: VDD_1 and VDD_2 correctly map to pins 4 and 6, but their pin descriptions should explicitly say VDD to avoid BOM/library ambiguity.
  5. Pad geometry not fully exposed in inspection output: no definitive mismatch found, but exact land-pattern dimensions were not numerically verifiable from the available layout readout.

OPSCO SK6812MINI RGBW is an intelligent addressable RGBW LED with an integrated control IC inside a compact 3.7 mm × 3.7 mm surface-mount package. It combines red, green, blue, and dedicated white LEDs with a built-in constant-current driver, allowing individual pixel control through a single-wire serial data interface. Each LED contains an internal data latch, PWM controller, signal reshaping circuit, and cascade output, enabling long chains of individually addressable LEDs without additional external components. Compatible with SK6812 and similar NeoPixel-style protocols, it is widely used in LED displays, decorative lighting, wearable electronics, smart home devices, gaming peripherals, indicators, keyboards, and embedded lighting applications. Features include serial data input/output (DIN/DOUT), integrated PWM dimming, high color consistency, and easy daisy-chain connectivity.
