One of the questions that hobbyists ask over and over is how to select the value of a current limiting resistor for an LED. Usually the seat of the pants response is: “Subtract 2 V from the supply ...

VCC has designed a series of LED sockets that feature a built-in current limiting resistor to provide optimal LED performance. VCC has designed a series of LED sockets that feature a built-in current ...

[mircemk] built a slick-looking LED tester with a couple handy functions built in. Not only can one select a target current to put through an LED, but by providing a target voltage, the system will ...

144 LEDs total. Three sets of 48 in series connected in parallel. My problem is I don't know what value to use for R1. I'm thinking 600 ohm, but I really don't know how to calculate this. I'm making ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. LED-based lighting is replacing incandescent and gas-discharge lamps in many situations. As practical lighting sources, and considering ...
