September 18, 20169 yr comment_740844 Kevin did not show Forward Voltage of LEDs in his designe,and I think it will not be 1.5V . so I want to konw it's 1.7V or 1.8V? Report
September 18, 20169 yr comment_740845 Different kinds of LEDs have different forward voltage requirements. Non-bright LEDs tend to require less voltage than bright LEDs, since bright LEDs need more power to work. Typical VLED values are 1.7V for non-high-brightness red, 1.9V for high-brightness high-efficiency low-current red, 2V for orange and yellow, 2.1V for green, and 3.4 to 3.6V for bright white and most blue types.

September 18, 20169 yr comment_740846 I believe Kevin's schematics normally assume 1.7V red LEDs, e.g. Mouser p/n 859-LTL-307ELC. //UFN Report
