Dear All,
Please can you advise on the wiring of a flashing LED circuit.
I want to connect 5 off 10mm red flashing HE LEDs (RS no.262-2977
Kingbright no.L-816BID) to a 9v DC supply.
It says on their spec sheet:
VF 9-12v
IF 22mA
IF max 38-56mA
Power dissipation 310mW
VR max 0.5v
Should I wire them in parallel?
I believe I cannot wire them in series as the voltage drop across each
LED will be too much for the supply won't it?
It says in the catalogue that series resistors are not required and
cannot be used to drop a higher voltage.
Any advice will be gratefully received!
