[QUOTE="Lightning303, post: 1115589, member: 97876"] I see. What about power consumption? Is your powersupply big enough? With 64 leds you would need a power supply that provides 3,84A. The arduino could cut out if there is no current to drive it left. Or maybe the voltage is dropping to much sometimes (fast and bright changes) so the arduino cuts out and after a while reboots again. Do you have a capacitor between power and ground? This cap can make sure something like this does not happen. If this is the cause of the problem that is. [url]https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/ws2812-breakout-hookup-guide[/url] [/QUOTE]
