What you need

• 1W Yellow LED Chip
• Protection Resistor
• DC 5V Power Supply
• Electrical protections (optional)

Steps

1. 1. Check the power supply voltage: it must be 5V.
2. 2. Connect a resistor between the LED chip and the power supply for protection.
3. 3. Connect the positive terminal of the power supply to the VCC pin of the LED chip.
4. 4. Connect the GND pin of the LED chip to the GND of the power supply.
5. 5. Test the resistor: 220Ω for a 1W chip.
6. 6. Check the maximum current on the datasheet.
7. 7. Install the LED chip in electrical protection if necessary.
8. 8. Test the circuit: check the illumination.

Mini project

Build a small emergency flashlight using the 1W Yellow LED chip and a plastic tube.

Common mistakes

• Connect the power supply directly to the LED chip without a resistor.
• Use a resistor that is too low, causing damage to the chip.
• Do not verify the maximum current specified on the datasheet.
• Omit electrical protections.

Recommended accessories

• Protection resistor
• DC 5V power supply
• Plastic tube
• Electrical protections

Frequently asked questions

How to calculate the protection resistor?
Use the formula R = (V – Vf) / If, where Vf is the forward voltage of the LED and If is the operating current.

What electrical protections are necessary?
Use a protected circuit or a voltage converter.

Can the LED chip operate with voltages different from 5V?
Check the datasheet for the operating voltage of the LED chip.

How can I test the maximum current?
Check the datasheet or use a multimeter to measure the current.
