Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the WS2801S?
Yes. The symbol is EasyEDA_Cloud:WS2801S and the footprint Package_SO:SOIC-14_3.9x8.7mm_P1.27mm, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.
What package is the WS2801S?
SOP-14, with 14 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.
Where is the WS2801S datasheet?
Worldsemi publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.
Where can I order the WS2801S?
JLCPCB lists it as part C114580, with 3,068 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.
What can replace the WS2801S?
Parts like it in the library: the TPS61050YZGR by Texas Instruments, the AAT3176IDH-T1 by Skyworks Solutions, the BU16501KS2-E2 by ROHM Semiconductor and the TPS61050YZGT by Texas Instruments. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
Which open-source boards use the WS2801S?
1 board in 1 repository on GitHub; the most starred are listed on this page, with their KiCad files.
