Clarification on ic`s ws2811/2801

Hi guys.

Needed a small clarification if possible. I'm thinking of doing one ambilight for my LCD but i`m in doubt in which IC to use. My doubt is whether I can use the IC ws2811 that uses 3 wires and having the same results as using the ws2801 that uses 4 wires, using the script for the Arduino available on the adafruit website https://learn.adafruit.com/adalight -DIY-ambient-lighting-tv / overview.

Grateful for the attention

The result will be the same.

Tks dude :slight_smile:
