Clear 'Piranha' Super-flux RGB (tri-color) LED (25 pack) – Common Anode

Description

Clear 5mm tri-color LEDs with separate red, green and blue LED chips inside! Nice bright indicator or illuminator, and fun to color-swirl. 80 degree viewing angle. You can plug these into a breadboard diagonally

These are Common-Anode type which means you connect one pin to 5V or so and then tie the other three legs to ground through a resistor. We carry and use CA more than CC because multi-LED driver chips (such as the TLC5940/TLC5941) are often designed exclusively for CA and can't be used with Common-Cathode.

0.3″/7.6mm on each side, square. Sometimes called 'Super flux' or 'Piranha'
