LEDs - Circuit Board Indicators, Arrays, Light Bars, Bar Graphs

The H301CSRD-100 LED is a popular component used in a variety of electronics projects due to its reliability and simplicity. Also known as a 12V LED, this component is a surface mounted, green LED which is suitable for use in a variety of applications ranging from automotive lighting to computer circuits.

Application Field

The H301CSRD-100 LED has a wide range of applications and is often referred to as an automotive LED due to its robust design which is suitable for automotive and vehicle use. It is often used for indicating direction when turning corners, for instrument panel lighting and for backlighting of buttons and switches.

The component can also be used in marine projects, for navigation lights and indicators and in homeware projects, providing a reliable solution for use in lighting and lighting indicator applications.

As well as this, the component is often used in circuit board design, such as prototyping and microcontroller projects. It is also a popular component component for Arduino-based projects, providing blue or green illumination.

Working Principle

H301CSRD-100 LEDs work on a simple principle of the negative terminal connected to ground and the positive terminal connected to the power source. When electric current passes through the LED, it illuminates, producing either blue or green light.

LEDs operate by exchanging electrons between two materials, in this case positive and negative. When electrons move from the negative to the positive terminal, a photon is released as light as a result. In the case of the H301CSRD-100 LED, the materials used are Aluminium and Nitrate, which act as a bridge for the electrons to travel across.

The LED operates on a low voltage system which is why it is so popular for circuit board design, as it can provide illumination without the risk of burning out components due to excessive current.

The biggest advantages of using LEDs in electronics projects are their low power consumption, compact size and efficient operation.
