Category: Tags: ,

The RGB LED is a four-pin LED that combines three individual LEDs (Red, Green, Blue) into a single package. By controlling each color intensity, you can generate a wide range of colors.

It comes in two types:

  • Common Anode (CA) – common pin connected to VCC
  • Common Cathode (CC) – common pin connected to GND

This LED is widely used in indicators, decorative lighting, mood lighting, and Arduino projects.

Each color requires a current-limiting resistor for safe operation.
