NuMaker-Lighting-ARGB OVERVIEW The NuMaker-Lighting-ARGB is an evaluation board for ARGB lighting application. It is an independent daughter board that must be connected to the NuMaker mother board through the Arduino interface connector when being used. For the development flexibility, the NuMaker-Lighting-ARGB provides the pin definition switches for connecting with different NuMaker mother boards, such as NuMaker- NUC1262SE, NuMaker-NUC1261SG, NuMaker-M252SD, and NuMaker-M032SE.

NuMaker-Lighting-ARGB Switches On the rear side of the NuMaker-Lighting-ARGB, there are 7 switches. The connector SW1, SW2, SW3 and SW4 are used to adjust the pin definitions for different NuMaker mother boards. The connector SW5, SW6, and SW7 are used to adjust the connection method of the ARGB LEDs between the ARGB Gen1 and ARGB Gen2 function.
