4. Configuració i connexió
Proper connection is crucial for the functionality and longevity of your LEDs. Incorrect wiring can damage the LED or your power source.
4.1 Identifying Polarity
- Anode (+): The longer lead of the LED. This connects to the positive terminal of your power supply.
- Cathode (-): The shorter lead of the LED. This connects to the negative terminal (ground) of your power supply.
- Additionally, the cathode side of the LED usually has a flat edge on the plastic casing.

4.2 Current Limiting Resistor
LEDs require a current-limiting resistor in series to prevent damage from excessive current. Connecting an LED directly to a voltage source without a resistor will likely burn out the LED instantly.
- Calculating Resistor Value: Use Ohm's Law: R = (Vs - Vf) / I, where:
- R: Resistor value in Ohms.
- Vs: Subministrament voltage (per exemple, 5V, 9V, 12V).
- Vf: Endavant voltage of the LED (refer to Table 3.1 or Figure 3.1 for specific LED color values).
- I: Desired forward current (typically 20mA or 0.02A for these LEDs).
- ExampLI: For a Red LED (Vf ≈ 2.0V) with a 5V supply and desired 20mA current: R = (5V - 2.0V) / 0.02A = 3V / 0.02A = 150 Ohms.
4.3 Passos bàsics de connexió
- Identify the anode (longer lead) and cathode (shorter lead) of the LED.
- Connect one end of the calculated current-limiting resistor to the positive terminal of your power supply.
- Connect the other end of the resistor to the anode (longer lead) of the LED.
- Connect the cathode (shorter lead) of the LED to the negative terminal (ground) of your power supply.
- Assegureu-vos que totes les connexions estiguin segures abans d'aplicar energia.
5. Instruccions de funcionament
Once properly connected with a current-limiting resistor, apply power to your circuit. The LED should illuminate. If it does not, refer to the Troubleshooting section.
- Control de brillantor: The brightness of the LED is primarily controlled by the current flowing through it. A higher current (within the LED's maximum rating) will result in greater brightness. This can be adjusted by changing the value of the current-limiting resistor.
- Modulació d'amplada de pols (PWM): For advanced brightness control and color mixing in RGB applications, Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) can be used with microcontrollers like Arduino or Raspberry Pi.
6. Cura i Manteniment
These LEDs are robust electronic components, but proper handling and storage will ensure their longevity.
- Manipulació: Avoid bending the leads excessively close to the LED body, as this can damage the internal structure. Handle by the leads or the plastic body, not the lens.
- Emmagatzematge: Store unused LEDs in their original packaging or in an anti-static container in a cool, dry place to prevent damage from moisture or static electricity.
- Neteja: If necessary, gently wipe the LED lens with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
7. Solució De Problemes
If your LED is not functioning as expected, consider the following common issues:
- El LED no s'il·lumina:
- Comprova la polaritat: Ensure the anode (longer lead) is connected to the positive supply and the cathode (shorter lead) to ground.
- Verify Resistor: Confirm that a current-limiting resistor is in series with the LED and its value is correctly calculated for your supply voltage and LED forward voltage.
- Font d'alimentació: Check if your power supply is providing the correct voltage i corrent.
- Damaged LED: The LED might be damaged if it was connected without a resistor or to an excessive voltage. Try another LED from the kit.
- LED is Dim:
- Resistor Value: The resistor value might be too high, limiting the current excessively. Recalculate or try a slightly lower resistance (ensure current does not exceed 20mA).
- Font d'alimentació: L'oferta voltage might be too low.
- LED is Too Bright / Burns Out Quickly:
- Resistor Value: The resistor value is too low or missing. Immediately disconnect power and install a correctly calculated current-limiting resistor.
- Vol excessiutage: L'oferta voltage might be too high for the LED even with a resistor.
