接下来我们再来看下两种仿真环境的对比效果

基于ThinkerCAD的效果
基于proteus的效果

arduino版七彩灯

1、新建一个基于arduino的工程

2、代码复制过来，然后编译

3、仿真原理图中添加WS2812

4、仿真看效果

TinkerCAD版七彩灯

Tinkercad | From mind to design in minutes
1、放置要仿真的模块

2、连接导线

3、稍加整理下导线

4、复制代码仿真

代码：

#include <Adafruit_NeoPixel.h>
#ifdef __AVR__
  #include <avr/power.h>
#endif
 
#define PIN 6
 
// Parameter 1 = number of pixels in strip
// Parameter 2 = Arduino pin number (most are valid)
// Parameter 3 = pixel type flags, add together as needed:
//   NEO_KHZ800  800 KHz bitstream (most NeoPixel products w/WS2812 LEDs)
//   NEO_KHZ400  400 KHz (classic 'v1' (not v2) FLORA pixels, WS2811 drivers)
//   NEO_GRB     Pixels are wired for GRB bitstream (most NeoPixel products)
//   NEO_RGB     Pixels are wired for RGB bitstream (v1 FLORA pixels, not v2)
//   NEO_RGBW    Pixels are wired for RGBW bitstream (NeoPixel RGBW products)
Adafruit_NeoPixel strip = Adafruit_NeoPixel(60, PIN, NEO_GRB + NEO_KHZ800);
 
// IMPORTANT: To reduce NeoPixel burnout risk, add 1000 uF capacitor across
// pixel power leads, add 300 - 500 Ohm resistor on first pixel's data input
// and minimize distance between Arduino and first pixel.  Avoid connecting
// on a live circuit...if you must, connect GND first.

  #endif
  // End of trinket special code

// Slightly different, this makes the rainbow equally distributed throughout

        strip.setPixelColor(i+q, 0);        //turn every third pixel off
      }
    }
  }
}
 
//Theatre-style crawling lights with rainbow effect
void theaterChaseRainbow(uint8_t wait) {
  for (int j=0; j < 256; j++) {     // cycle all 256 colors in the wheel

// The colours are a transition r - g - b - back to r.
uint32_t Wheel(byte WheelPos) {
  WheelPos = 255 - WheelPos;

  }
  if(WheelPos < 170) {
    WheelPos -= 85;
    return strip.Color(0, WheelPos * 3, 255 - WheelPos * 3);

总结：

1、pretous针对这种纯数字器件仿真验证想法还是非常有意义的，能在一定程度上节约一些开销
2、Tinkercad目前只有在线版的，访问速度有点慢，提供的模块相对有限，但是学习基本东西完全够用
3、Adafruit NeoPixel参考官方介绍
