This 5mm RGB LED contains three LED elements (red, green and blue). Each element can be controlled independently. By varying the amount by which each element is turned on any colour can be created. They are ideal for designing variable coloured lighting effects.

This LED has a common cathode which is the longest leg (negative).

Features:

  • Diffused LED for even light output.
  • RoHS compliant.

Contents:

  • 1 x RGB 5mm Diffused LED – 60deg – 1000mCd – Cmn Cathode.

    Answered by the admin I have double checked for you and the typical current for this LED is 20mA.
  2. is this LED programable if so how would i program it.i'm trying to make a lamp for an NEA and i'm planning to make it so the buyer would be able to program it

    Answered by the admin Hi Cameron, Yes you would need to use a microcontroller to turn the LED and set the colour. We use this RGB LED in our
    Inventor's Kit for the BBC micro:bit, you would simply instruct the microcontroller to determine how bright each colour within the RGB LED is. For instance if you wanted solid Red, you would send a voltage through the leg connected to the Red section of the LED. For Yellow, you would send an equal voltage through both the Green and Red legs.
  4. Is there a PDF file on this product that gives connection details etc?

    Answered by the admin I have spoken to people our side and we are adding an image to show the pins and how they connect to the LED.
