{"title":"LED - RGB Diffused Common Anode","handle":"led-rgb-diffused-common-anode","url":"/products/led-rgb-diffused-common-anode","description":"A 5 mm diffused RGB LED with a common anode configuration. Three individual colour channels (red, green, blue) share a single anode pin, allowing independent control of each colour. Use it as a multi-colour status indicator, or drive all three channels with PWM to mix custom colours.\n\nThe diffused lens provides a wider viewing angle compared to clear LEDs, producing a softer, more evenly distributed light output.\n\nKey Features\n\n\nCommon Anode – Single shared anode pin with three independent cathodes (R, G, B)\n\nDiffused Lens – Wide viewing angle with soft, even light distribution\n\nPWM Compatible – Mix colours by modulating individual channels\n\nStandard 5 mm Package – Through-hole, 4-pin\n\n\nSpecifications\n\n\nPackage – 5 mm diffused, 4-pin through-hole\n\nConfiguration – Common anode\n\nForward Voltage – Red: 2.0 V, Green: 3.2 V, Blue: 3.2 V\n\nMax Forward Current – 20 mA per channel\n\nMax Luminosity – Red: 2,800 mcd, Green: 6,500 mcd, Blue: 1,200 mcd\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nMulti-colour status indicators\nArduino and microcontroller projects\nMood lighting and decorative displays\nLearning about LED colour mixing\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× RGB diffused LED (common anode)\n\n\nResources\n\nDatasheet (PDF)\nLED Tutorial (SparkFun)\n","vendor":"SparkFun","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":12391,"title":"Default Title","sku":"SF-COM-10821","price":4.42,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":1256,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
