{"title":"Diffused RGB (tri-color) LED [Common Anode]","handle":"diffused-rgb-tri-color-led-common-anode","url":"/products/diffused-rgb-tri-color-led-common-anode","description":"Diffused 5mm tri-color LED with separate red, green and blue LED chips inside! Nice indicator, and fun to color-swirl. 60 degree viewing angle. We like diffused RGB LEDs because they color mix inside instead of appearing as 3 distinct LEDs.  These are Common-Anode type which means you connect one pin to 5V or so and then tie the other three legs to ground through a resistor. We carry and use CA more than CC because multi-LED driver chips (such as the TLC5940/TLC5941) are often designed exclusively for CA and can't be used with Common-Cathode.   \t5mm diameter \tRed: 630 nm wavelength, Green: 525 nm, Blue: 430 nm \tRed: 2.1-2.5V Forward Voltage, at 20mA current, Green: 3.8-4.5V, Blue: 3.8-4.5V \tRed: 500 mcd typical brightness, Green: 600 mcd, Blue: 300 mcd \tDatasheet   If you need some help using LEDs, please read our \"Introduction to using LEDs\" tutorial for any electronics project.","vendor":"Adafruit","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":11508,"title":"Default Title","sku":"AF-159","price":4.1,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":100,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
