Products for USB Sensing and Control
The 3608 LED is a square of brightness with four times the capacity of a regular LED and has a very wide light beam of 90°. Because of its brightness it is not recommended as an indicator light.
Here are the options available for interfacing these LEDs to your computer. Our specialized LED controllers offer features like dimming and current control, but any Phidget with digital outputs will work for basic applications where an LED just needs to be turned on and off.
When connecting to an LED output, use the LED cable and connect the anode to the red wire and the cathode to the black wire.
When connecting to ordinary digital outputs, connect the anode to the Digital Output and the cathode to Ground.
Warning: When mixing Super Flux LEDs of different colors, check the connection diagram for each colour to ensure that they are properly connected.
