Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What is the polarity of this LED?
A: Standard LEDs are polarized; the longer lead typically indicates the anode (+) and the shorter lead indicates the cathode (-). Incorrect polarity will prevent the LED from illuminating.

Q: What is the recommended series resistor value for a 5V supply?
A: For a 5V supply and a 2.1V forward voltage at 30mA, a series resistor of approximately (5V - 2.1V) / 0.030A = 96.67 ohms is required. A 100-ohm resistor is commonly used to limit current.

Q: Can this LED be used with AC voltage?
A: No, this LED is designed for DC operation. Applying reverse AC voltage without protection can damage the component.
