In the world of LED lighting, there are different systems that offer various options in terms of colors and light temperatures. The best known is undoubtedly the RGB, of which we have already seen that it is a color composition system based on the addition of the primary colors of light. This time, we will explore the RGB+CCT, RGBWW, RGBW, RGBTW, RGBWA and RGBIC systems.
We will see that each system offers unique characteristics in terms of colors and light temperatures. We will learn the differences between them, highlighting their versatility, color variety, white tone adjustment and the ability to create more complex lighting effects and animations.
RGB+CCT: Versatility in colors and light temperatures
The RGB+CCT system is a combination of two types of LEDs: RGB (Red, Green, Blue) and CCT (Correlated Color Temperature). The RGB LEDs allow for a wide range of colors, while the CCT LEDs adjust the color temperature from warm to cool. This combination offers exceptional versatility in lighting, allowing for a wide variety of colors and shades of white.
RGBWW: Vibrant colors with warm white light
The RGBWW system uses RGB LEDs and WW (Warm White) LEDs. The RGB LEDs provide vivid colors, while the WW LEDs emit warm white light. This allows for a wide range of colors and white tone adjustment, although it does not offer the same variety of color temperatures as RGB+CCT.
RGBW: Wide color gamut with cool white light
In the RGBW system, RGB LEDs are used in combination with W (White) LEDs, which emit cool white light. Although it offers a wide color gamut, it only provides a choice of white light, usually cool white light.
RGBTW: Variety of colors and light temperature adjustment
The RGBTW system combines RGB LEDs with TW (Tunable White) LEDs. In addition to the color variety of RGB, this system allows the color temperature of the white light to be adjusted, similar to CCT, providing greater versatility in lighting.
RGBWA: Warm colors and amber tones
RGBWA is an LED lighting system that adds LED A (Amber) to the RGB LED combination. The addition of Amber allows for warmer colors and amber tones that are not possible with RGB alone.
RGBIC: Individual Control for Dynamic Effects
The RGBIC system combines RGB LEDs with IC (Integrated Circuit) technology or individual LED control. This allows precise control of each LED, which facilitates the creation of more complex and dynamic lighting patterns, effects and animations.
