Overview
This pixel protocol was designed by Lianxinke in China. UCS2904 offers all the same features as its RGB version, UCS2903, but is dedicated to RGBW. The control circuit comes in a SOP8 package, allowing for more flexibility with LED choice.

Considerations for Use
Advantages
- Up to 24V, allowing for very long cable lengths
- High PWM rate allows for filming these pixels with cameras up to 60fps
- Presence of white LED allows for higher brightness and more color mixing options
Disadvantages
- Data-only restricts refresh rates to be limited by the speed of the protocol, which can be slow
- Only 8 bits of data for each color makes dimming curves less smooth
- No redundancy in data
