Title: Parallel LED Setup...Help?
Post by: shawnzilla on April 28, 2003, 12:35:47 am

Does anyone have a wiring diagram for wiring multiple (three or more) LEDs in a parallel circuit to the computer power supply?

Thanks!

One. Two. Twenty. All use the same value resistor. You may want that resistor to be a higher wattage though.

Got a wiring diagram on my homepage - somewhere under LED. The only real way is to have a resistor for each LED -twenty LED's, twenty resistors.
Explanations why are there, too!

But know I'm going on vacation for a week, no more electronic-support by me!  ;)
