RGB Led Is A Component That Contains Three Individual Channels

RGB LEDs consist of three channels (Red, Green, Blue) that can mix colors by controlling their intensity. There are two types: Common Anode, where the anode is connected to VCC, and Common Cathode, where the cathode is connected to GND. Each type has specific connection methods for controlling the colors using Arduino PWM pins and current-limiting resistors.

RGB led is a component that contains three individual channels (Red, Green, and Blue) in one package.

By controlling the intensity of each color, you can create a wide range of colors through color mixing.

There are two types:

Common Anode RGB LED:

- The anode of all three LEDs is connected to a single common pin.

- The cathodes of the LEDs are separate.

- To light up a specific color, you connect the common anode to VCC (5V) and control
the cathodes by connecting them to GND through resistors.

Common Cathode RGB LED:

- The cathode of all three is connected to a single common pin.

- The anodes (positive terminals) of the LEDs are separate.

- To light up a specific color, you connect the common cathode to GND and control the
anodes by connecting them to VCC (5V) through resistors.

Description of ‫ االرجل‬:

The longest ‫ رجل‬is usually the common (anode or cathode), shared for all three LEDs.

The other three ‫ ارجل‬correspond to the red, green, and blue LEDs used to control the colors.

How to connect ?

Common Anode RGB LED :

Common ‫رجل‬: Connect to VCC (5V).

Red, Green, Blue ‫ارجل‬: Connect to Arduino PWM pinsthrough current-limiting


Common Cathode RGB LED :

Common ‫رجل‬: Connect to GND.

Red, Green, Blue ‫ارجل‬: Connect to Arduino PWM pins through current-limiting resistors.
