Tricolor LED

• Two LEDs placed in parallel facing opposite directions.
• One LED is red or orange, the other is green.
• Current flow in one direction turns one LED ON while the other remains OFF due
to reverse bias.
• Current flow in the other direction turns the first LED OFF and the second LED ON.
• Rapid switching of current flow direction will alternatively turn the two LEDs ON
giving yellow light.
• Used as a polarity indicator.
• Maximum voltage rating: 3V
• Operating range: 10 to 20mA
