LED Resistor Calculator Plus for Android

11 things about LED Resistor Calculator Plus

1. LED resistance calculator use to determine the series resistor needed to connect various series combinations of light emitting diodes or "LEDs".

2. LED resistance calculator will help you determine the value of the resistor so you can add in series with the LED to limit the current.

3. Appearing as practical electronic components in 1962, the earliest LEDs emitted low-intensity infrared light.

4. * This method is not recommended for high current LEDs, which need a more reliable switching current regulator.

5. When a suitable current is applied to the leads, electrons are able to recombine with electron holes within the device, releasing energy in the form of photons.

6. Every (LED) light emitting diode has a current that they can handle safely.

7. So limiting the current through the LED with the use of a series resistor is a common practice.

8. Infrared LEDs are still frequently used as transmitting elements in remote-control circuits, such as those in remote controls for a wide variety of consumer electronics.

9. This effect is called electroluminescence, and the color of the light (corresponding to the energy of the photon) is determined by the energy band gap of the semiconductor.

10. LED resistance calculator will assist you pick the resistors make the connections for any number of LEDs.

11. LEDs are typically small (less than 1 mm2) and integrated optical components may be used to shape the radiation pattern.
