How can I connect 156 led in series using 220v/ac or some other rating/dc.
Here are the factors:
Blue or white leds 3,2-3,6v, 20 mA each.
Please describe in detail "how to" either for AC or DC.
Thank you VERY much!

I wanna make a led steady lettering wich uses those 156 leds.
It's possible workaround the 546v by spliting the series in 2: 78*3=234v
Where I work there are those letterings and I know that they use plain AC.
hi,
This is one way.
Three identical chains of 52 LED's
The LED's must be able to carry 12mA average and 40mA peak currents.
NOTE: this circuit is NOT isolated from the mains supply.
A resistor does not make a good simulation model for an LED. Better would be a zener with a breakdown voltage equal to the sum of the LED voltages. Using a 3.5V drop for the 78 LEDs in this example would require a zener of 273V.The Series LED string of 78 LED's is represented by a 13k954 resistor to aproximate the LED string (Willbe helped here), too much time to make the white LED spice component.
Also each LED string should have it's own series resistor to minimize current hogging.
