These classic thru-hole round LEDs illuminate indicators, signs, or displays with narrow-to-wide beams—5mm for brighter output (up to 10000mcd), 3mm for compact spots. Essential for first-year engineering students prototyping on breadboards with current-limiting resistors.
5mm: ~5.8mm dome, 15–30° angle, 20mA/2–3.5V; 3mm: ~3.6mm, similar specs but smaller footprint. Available in red/green/blue/white; 5V circuits need 150–330Ω.
