Description
This 3mm White LED is ideal for using as a bright indicator light or illuminating a small area. They easily fit in a solderless breadboard or perfboard and are perfect for experimenting. The forward voltage is 3.4V with a current consumption of 20mA. The LED is rated at 3700mcd with a view angle of 36°. To use this 3mm White LED you will need a current limiting resistor; this will vary depending on your input voltage. Typically with a 5V supply we recommend using a 100 ohm resistor for a single LED.
These fit our Metal 3mm LED Holders, Plastic 3mm LED Holders, and our Basic 3mm LED Holders
