Minimum delay for Neopixel sequence?

[Kokodoko]

What is the minimum delay between setting neopixel values, where the pixel has enough time to process?
In this Standtest code I use a delay of 20. Can it do any harm to set it shorter?

Code: Select all

void colorWipe(uint32_t c) {
  for(uint16_t i=0; i<strip.numPixels(); i++) {
    strip.setPixelColor(i, c);
    strip.show();
    delay(20);
  }
}

No delay is required. If you want the fastest possible update, you can move the show outside the loop too:

Code: Select all

void colorBlast(uint32_t c) 
{
  for(uint16_t i=0; i<strip.numPixels(); i++) 
  {
      strip.setPixelColor(i, c);
  }
  strip.show();
}
