Frequently asked questions
What is the price of Yellow 5mm LED with Wire (585nm, 20mA Max) in Egypt?
Yellow 5mm LED with Wire (585nm, 20mA Max) currently costs 6 EGP in Egypt.
Where can I buy Yellow 5mm LED with Wire (585nm, 20mA Max) in Egypt?
Yellow 5mm LED with Wire (585nm, 20mA Max) is available from Most Electronics. Compare the offers above to find the best price.
Can I connect it directly to a 12 V supply?
No. Despite the 12 V in the title, this LED has a typical forward voltage of 2 V and a maximum forward current of 20 mA, so it needs a series resistor. For a 5 V supply use about 150 ohms, and for 12 V use about 500 ohms, calculated as (Vsupply - 2 V) / 0.02 A.
Is the LED 3 mm or 5 mm?
The title says 5 mm, while the listing dimensions state 3 x 5.5 mm. Check the lens diameter against your PCB hole or LED holder before installing it.
