Lots of Fun work today. The Datasheet for the LED's appeared to recommend filter capacitors on the data line so Those were added. A Pin is placed on each side of the string so the boards can be designed to be daisy chained to add more LED's I want to add more LED's to the string and will do so if there is enough space.
Wired up the Temperature sensor. The data sheet for the sensor also recommended a filter capacitor on the data line.
Also Added a 3V Regulator so the whole board runs on a single 5V Power Supply.
The Resistors and Capacitor on the Left of the microcontroller were recommended by Microchips datasheet for the PIC18F25K80. I chose this Microcontroller because it had a broader temperature range and a fairly small footprint.
