RGB LED
Contents
Description
A regular RGB LED is basically 3 LEDs (one red, one green, one blue) in parallel. This is not a smart LED, for smart LEDs see LED Ring NeoPixel.
How to connect it electrically
The RGB LED is connected like 3 paralell LEDs. It is important that you need one resistor for each color! The resistor goes before the LED and not onto the common ground.

In this part of the tutorial, we show how to connect an RGB-LED and programming it with Micropython. We first look at what an RGB LED is by building one with 3 separate LEDs. We then look at switching it on and off and how to set the color using the duty cycle in the PWM output.
