LED Assorted Pack – 5mm Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, White | Compoden
LED Assorted – 5mm Through-Hole LEDs (Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, White)
This LED assorted pack contains 50 through-hole 5mm LEDs: 10 each of red, green, blue, yellow, and white. Each LED is designed for low-current indicator and illumination tasks, with a standard 2–3V forward voltage and 20mA operating current. The variety makes it an essential addition to any electronics workbench, from beginner prototyping to advanced circuit testing.

- A simple logic probe or continuity tester
Compatibility
These LEDs work with any 3.3V or 5V system, including Arduino, ESP8266, Raspberry Pi GPIO, and standalone transistor circuits. Always pair each LED with an appropriate current-limiting resistor (220–470Ω for 5V supplies). They fit standard breadboards and perfboards with 2.54mm pitch.
Wiring Notes
The longer lead is the anode (positive); connect it to your positive rail via a resistor. The shorter lead is the cathode (negative); connect to ground. For multiple LEDs in series, ensure the combined forward voltage does not exceed your supply voltage.
Why Buy from Compoden
Every component is sourced from verified suppliers and tested for compatibility before listing. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. Ships from Bengaluru in 3-5 days. If defective on arrival, replace within 7 days.
Is this compatible with Arduino Uno?
Yes, each LED can be driven directly from an Arduino digital pin with a 220Ω resistor. The 5V output safely powers a single LED per pin.
How many LEDs do I get of each colour?
The pack includes 10 red, 10 green, 10 blue, 10 yellow, and 10 white LEDs – 50 pieces in total.
Can I power these with a 9V battery?
Yes, but you must use a higher-value resistor (approx. 390–470Ω) to limit current. Do not connect directly without a resistor.
