Description
A miniature Red and Yellow tri-colour 5mm LED with a uniform light output and low power consumption housed in a water clear package.
Diodes are connected in a common cathode configuration. Yellow is the shorter leg.
Common cathode is the centre leg, which is where the resistor should be fitted.
These LEDs DO require a series resistor which is not included, but are available separately. The resistors listed below are the minimum required for safe operation.
If operating from a 9v DC supply use 220R Model Number 228-504 carbon film resistor.
If operating from a 12v DC supply use 330R Model Number 228-506 carbon film resistor.
If operating from a 16v DC supply use 470R Model Number 228-508 carbon film resistor.
Sold individually so you only buy what you need.
