The 5mm White Green LED is a compact and energy-efficient light-emitting diode designed for a wide range of electronics, robotics, and DIY projects. With its standard 5 mm round through-hole package, this LED can be easily used on breadboards, prototype boards, or soldered onto PCBs, making it ideal for students, hobbyists, and engineers working on embedded systems and electronics circuits.
This LED emits a distinct white-green illumination, providing bright and clear visibility that is suitable for status indicators, signal displays, control panels, and decorative lighting applications. The LED typically operates at a forward voltage of about 2.8 V to 3.3 V with a recommended forward current of around 20 mA, so a current-limiting resistor should be used to ensure safe operation and prevent damage.
The LED features a two-pin through-hole design, where the longer lead is the anode (positive) and the shorter lead is the cathode (negative). This design makes it easy to integrate with microcontroller platforms such as Arduino, ESP32, ESP8266, and Raspberry Pi, allowing it to be used for indicators, lighting effects, and various electronic experiments.
