The 20 cm long lead cable enables flexible positioning away from the controller. Each color channel requires its own power supply between 2 V and 3.3 V, which means that three separate outputs on the microcontroller board are necessary, either digital switches or, preferably, PWM outputs for smoothly mixing all shades. The common cathode is connected to ground.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eApplications include status indication, color-coding of measured values, and decorating prototypes. In a waste bin project, three LEDs connected in parallel can indicate the fill level: green for low, yellow for medium, and red for full. PWM control is required for flashing or breathing effects, rather than simple digital signal control.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOperation with 3.3 V logic requires current-limiting resistors for each channel. When used with 5 V systems, a level shifter is required between the controller and the LED. The LED requires an external power supply if the current consumption and available output power of the board are insufficient. For continuous operation, calculating the required series resistors based on the desired brightness and maximum current per channel is recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSafety information\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe LED is intended exclusively for building prototypes and for testing and development purposes and is not suitable for integration into household electrical circuits. When connecting it to power sources above 3.3 V, current-limiting measures are required to prevent damage. If you have questions about integrating it into an existing electrical system, consult a qualified electrician before commissioning.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4\u003eScope of delivery\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x RGB LED 5mm with 20cm lead \/cable, up to 12V (optionally fast- or slow-flashing)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Funduino","offers":[{"title":"rapid blinking","offer_id":66045659840861,"sku":"F23107542","price":0.78,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"slow blinking","offer_id":66045779968349,"sku":"F23109029","price":0.78,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1074\/5649\/5965\/files\/master-rgb-led-farbwechsel-5mm-mit-20cm-zuleitung-kabel-bis-12v-funduino-6267973.png?v=1791486886","url":"https:\/\/funduino.com\/en\/products\/master-rgb-led-color-changing-5mm-with-20cm-lead-cable-up-to-12v","provider":"Funduino","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
