Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a circuit with three LEDs, each having a forward voltage of 2.0V, connected to a 12V power supply. Calculate resistor values for each to maintain a current of 25mA.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Apply the formula for each LED individually.

Question 2

If you replace an incandescent bulb in a circuit with two parallel LEDs, calculate the total current drawn if each LED has a forward voltage of 2V from a 12V supply.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Calculate each LED separately first.
