Forward voltage, current, and package styles for common LEDs.
LEDs are diodes with light output. Design around If, Vf, and thermal limits from the datasheet.
Packages
0603/0805 indicators for panels, through-hole 3 mm and 5 mm for prototypes, dedicated modules for lighting. Always set current with a resistor or constant-current driver, not a bare voltage source.
