RGB LED Module 5mm Clear — 3-Pin, Arduino PWM Color Control
A compact RGB LED module with a 5mm clear RGB LED and built-in current-limiting resistors for all three channels — connect directly to Arduino PWM pins without additional components. The module breaks out the R, G, and B channels to a 4-pin 2.54mm header for easy jumper wire connection. Mix any of 16.7 million colors using analogWrite() PWM control from Arduino.
Key Specifications
- LED: 5mm clear RGB | Type: Common Cathode
- Pins: 4 (R / G / B / GND) | Pitch: 2.54mm header
- Built-in: Current-limiting resistors for all 3 channels
- Supply: 5V | Control: PWM (analogWrite 0–255)
- Color mixing: 16.7 million colors
- Compliance: RoHS compliant
Why a Module vs Bare RGB LED?
- ✅ Built-in resistors — no resistor calculation, connect directly to Arduino PWM pins
- ✅ 2.54mm header — plug in jumper wires, no soldering required
- ✅ Compact PCB — easy to mount in enclosures and on breadboards
- ✅ 3.3V and 5V compatible — works with Arduino, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi
Arduino Code Example
analogWrite(redPin, 255); // Full red analogWrite(greenPin, 0); analogWrite(bluePin, 128); // Half blue // Result: Purple
Typical Applications
- Arduino RGB color mixing and mood lighting
- Multi-color status indicator with PWM control
- Color-coded alert system
- RGB LED prototype without resistor calculation
- Electronics education RGB color mixing projects
