Similar to [OctoWS2811](https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_OctoWS2811.html), this library
allows you to use WS2811, WS2812, WS2812B / NeoPixel LEDs without blocking interrupts.

Serial6 on Teensy 3.6 is not currently supported, due to different hardware
registers.

If more than one object instance is created, each must use a different
serial port, and each must have its own buffer memory.

## 5 Volt Data Signal Level

WS2812 / NeoPixel LEDs are meant to use 5 volt signals. Most of WS2812 LEDs
made before 2014 or after 2015 can use 3.3V signals, which Teensy LC and 3.x
output. But a buffer chip to boost the signal to 5 volts is still the best
practice.

Teensy LC has a 5V buffer chip built in, connected to pin 17. The best way
to use this buffer is leave pin 17 unused, and connect the data signals from
pin 24 (or any other supported pin) to pin 17. Then connect the WS2812 LEDs
to the 5V signal output.

![](extras/teensylc_5v.jpg)

For Teensy 3.x, a separate 5V buffer chip should be used. Unidirectional
buffer chips like
[74HCT245](https://www.fairchildsemi.com/datasheets/74/74VHCT245A.pdf) and
[74AHCT125](https://www.adafruit.com/product/1787) are best. Do NOT use
[these mosfet transistor level shifters](https://www.sparkfun.com/products/12009).
They are far too slow for WS2812 LED data.
