5mm LED – Blue (pack of 50)

5mm LED Basics

LED is a semiconductor light source and has two leads, also named junction that is P and N jumctions. It releases energy in the form of photons by applying a suitable voltage to its leads. The photons get generated because electrons get combine with holes within device and release energy, this effect is electroluminescence. This is a semiconductor device so colour depends on band gap of semiconductor material.

Yellow LED Features

• High Flux Output
• Low Profile
• Low Thermal Resistance
• Low Power Consumption
• Pb free
