An LED is a two-lead semiconductor light source that emits light when activated. When an appropriate voltage is applied to the LED terminal, the electrons recombine with the electron holes within the device and release energy in the form of photons, a phenomenon known as electroluminescence. The energy bandgap between the semiconductor determines the color of the LED.
More hobbyists are embracing surface mount technology, aided by tools like hot air and hotplate reflow ovens, to shrink projects to new levels of portability. Acquiring small quantities of SMD parts can be challenging, making these tiny red LEDs a valuable addition to any project.
