2 Pin 5mm Round Blue LED
Description:
A 2-pin 5mm round blue LED is a small, circular electronic component that emits blue light when an electric current is passed through it. It’s widely used in various electronic applications, including indicators, displays, and lighting effects.
Specifications:
- Size: 5mm diameter
- Pins: 2 pins for power and ground connections
- Color: Blue
- Forward Voltage (Vf): Typically around 3.0-3.2V
- Forward Current (If): Typically 20mA
- Viewing Angle: 120 degrees (approximate)
- Luminous Intensity: Varies, but typically around 2-5 mcd (milli-candela)
Key Features:
- Compact Size: Ideal for space-constrained designs
- Low Power Consumption: Efficient use of energy
- Long Lifespan: Durable and reliable
- Wide Viewing Angle: Provides good visibility
- Easy to Use: Simple two-pin connection
Applications:
- Indicator Lights: Power on/off indicators, alarm indicators, etc.
- Backlighting: For displays and keyboards
- Lighting Effects: Creating various lighting patterns and effects
- Hobby and DIY Projects: Building custom electronic circuits and gadgets
Note:
When using LEDs, it’s important to limit the forward current to prevent overheating and damage. A resistor is typically used in series with the LED to control the current. The value of the resistor can be calculated using Ohm’s Law and considering the LED’s forward voltage and desired current.
By understanding these specifications and features, you can effectively use 2-pin 5mm round blue LEDs in your electronic projects.
