A 5mm Red Diffused LED (Light Emitting Diode) is a foundational semiconductor light source designed for status indication, visual alarms, power signaling, and display backlighting in low-power electronic circuits. Encapsulated in a red-tinted, light-diffusing epoxy dome, it projects a soft, uniform red illumination across a wide viewing angle. It features unequal lead lengths for simple pin identification, with the longer anode (+ positive) lead and shorter cathode (- negative) lead situated beside a subtle flat notch on the base collar.

This product is featured by Famephase Electronic Accessories as an essential indicator component for fault/power status displays, microcontroller prototyping, custom instrument panels, and DIY hobbyist electronics.
