10mm LED Red🔴

The 10 mm Red LED delivers vivid, reliable illumination with excellent energy efficiency and long operational life. Ideal for DIY electronics, prototyping, and commercial designs, it integrates seamlessly with platforms like Arduino and Raspberry Pi for status indication, signaling, and accent lighting.

✨ Key Features

• High-intensity illumination for clear, visible signaling
• Low power consumption suited to battery-powered projects
• Long service life thanks to solid-state reliability
• Wide viewing angle for enhanced off-axis visibility
• Easy to set up and operate on breadboards, PCBs, and modules

📐 Technical Details

• Package diameter: 10 mm (through-hole, round lens)
• Color: Red
• Viewing angle: Broad (wide-angle visibility)
• Polarity: Long lead = Anode (+); short lead/flat side = Cathode (−)
• Operation: Use a current‑limiting resistor or a constant‑current LED driver
• Typical electricals (general red LEDs): forward voltage ~1.8–2.2 V; forward current 10–20 mA (verify exact values from the product datasheet)

🔧 Compatibility & Prototyping

Works seamlessly with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, ESP32, and other microcontroller platforms. A versatile electronics component for indicator panels, custom modules, and embedded systems.

💡 Potential Uses

• DIY electronics and hobby projects
• Architectural illumination and accents
• Signage letter backlighting
• Decorative and highlight/accent lighting
• Commercial lighting and indicator systems

⚡ Quick Hookup Guide

• GPIO (microcontroller) → series resistor → LED anode (+)
• LED cathode (−) → GND
• Choose resistor using Ohm’s law: R = (Vsupply − Vf) / If

Whether you’re building a prototype on a breadboard or integrating into a production PCB, this 10 mm Red LED is a dependable choice for clear visual indication across a wide range of electronics applications.
