Hey guys,

Just ordered a bunch of funky LEDs and the bi-colored ones confuse me...They have the standard two leads but what do I need to do to make it cycle colors between red and green? I was under the impression that it was a changing pattern but I guess I need to tie a resistor in there somewhere....FWIW, it's on a Top Boost module...


Any help is appreciated...
 
Matt,

I orderd some the green/red LED's from mouser for a couple new mods I am doing but mine have 3 terminals on them. Where did you buy them? Is there a spec sheet for them, that should make it pretty easy to tell.
 
If it only has two leads then when you switch the polarity, reverse + and -, it'll switch colors. Remember to use resistors in series with it.
