Description
A pack of 10 x 5mm RGB Common Cathode LEDs with a 4 pin configuration and clear lens, perfect for full colour projects using microcontrollers like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or shift registers.
Each LED combines Red, Green, and Blue emitters in a single housing with a common cathode (shared ground), allowing for precise control of colour and brightness through PWM.
- Product: RGB 5mm LED – Common Cathode
- Type: 4-Pin Water Clear Multicolour LED
- Configuration: Common Cathode (longest lead = GND)
- Quantity: 10 LEDs
- 5mm round RGB LED with transparent lens
- 4-pin design (1 common cathode, 3 anodes for R, G, B)
- Clear housing for bright output and full colour blending
- Common cathode – suitable for most PWM control systems
- Compatible with breadboards, microcontrollers, and shift registers
What’s Included:
- 10 x 5mm RGB Common Cathode Water Clear LEDs
Great For:
- DIY RGB lighting and ambient visual effects
- Arduino, Raspberry Pi, ESP32, and other MCU projects
- LED matrix and display construction
- Educational and prototyping uses
- Shift register or transistor-switched light arrays
Usage Tips:
- Use a resistor on each colour pin to prevent overcurrent
- Connect the longest leg (common cathode) to GND
- Use PWM to control brightness and colour combinations
