About this product
A standard 3mm yellow LED with a diffused lens, used for status indication, pin monitoring and basic display projects. Its forward drop is 2.0 to 2.4V, with a maximum current of 20mA and a suggested operating current of 16 to 18mA. It is a good choice for general-purpose indicator lights in electronics prototypes.

What series resistor should I use with a 5V supply?
With a 5V supply and about 2.2V forward drop, a 150 ohm resistor gives roughly 15 to 18 mA.
Why does the yellow LED need a different resistor than the red one?
Yellow LEDs have a higher forward voltage (2.0 to 2.4V versus 1.8 to 2.2V for red), so the same resistor gives a different current. Calculate the resistor from the supply voltage and the LED's forward drop.
