Hi all ..
I have a high powered LED :
Forward Current @ Test: 1A
Forward Current If Max: 1.5A
Forward Voltage @ Test: 3.6V
Power Dissipation Pd: 5W
LED Mounting: SMD
Opto Case Style: SMD
No. of Pins: 5
Forward Voltage VF Max: 3.8V
LED / Lamp Size: 4.4mm x 4.4mm
What I`d like to know is do i need a driver or resistor, the LEDs mounted onto a PCPCB, I have a universal power adaptor with a voltage changer on it, which i dont think is adaquate its input is 230v~50hz 8.7w output 0 to 12v 300ma 3.6va(max).
I would be greatful if someone could point me in the right direction thnks
Pete
