Super-bright 5mm IR LED (25 pack)
Infrared LEDs are used for remote controls (they're the little LED in the part you point at your TV) and 'night-vision' cameras, and these little blue guys are high powered ones! They are 940nm wavelength, which is what nearly all devices listen to.
Pinout
- Anode1
Positive LED terminal for the IR emitter. Adafruit identifies the part as IR333-A; the Everlight IR333-A datasheet package drawing labels lead 1 as Anode.
Type · powerVoltage · Forward voltage 1.2V typical at 20mA, 1.5V max at 20mA; 100mA continuous forward-current rating from datasheet. - Cathode2
Negative LED terminal for the IR emitter. The Everlight IR333-A datasheet package drawing labels lead 2 as Cathode.
