- 10 Segment LED Bar Graph - Yellow
These 10 segment bar graph LEDs have many uses. With a compact footprint, simple hookup, they are easy for prototyping or finished products. Essentially, they are 10 individual yellow LEDs housed together, each with an individual anode and cathode connection.
We also carry these in red, blue, and green.
Note: The pinout on these bar graphs may vary from what is listed on the datasheet. Rotating the device 180 degrees will correct the change making pin 11 the first pin in line. We have contacted our supplier to correct this mistake in the future.

How to hook up the LM3914 or LM3916 to drive a 10-LED display with a lone analog signal.
Core Skill: Electrical Prototyping
If it requires power, you need to know how much, what all the pins do, and how to hook it up. You may need to reference datasheets, schematics, and know the ins and outs of electronics.
Skill Level: Competent - You will be required to reference a datasheet or schematic to know how to use a component. Your knowledge of a datasheet will only require basic features like power requirements, pinouts, or communications type. Also, you may need a power supply that?s greater than 12V or more than 1A worth of current.

Best Use Of LEDs| Many Uses
I find it to be smart to make a bar graph with leds in such way. I jumped right ahead to use it on my bread board but forgot the resistor and burned one of the leds. The yellow colored led looks great! I do recommend that the anode and cathode sides be clearly distinguished.
Have I figured correctly, that if I you your 330 ohm bus retwork resistors with these on a 5 volt system, I'll only draw 8.55 ma thru each LED bar. It's typical rating is 20ma, so will they be quite dim at only 8.5?
More like an ORANGE bar than a YELLOW bar.
Sorry for someone telling you why 6 years later, but if you use it at a lower voltage I find it to be more of a yellow color.
Proper yellow LEDs seem to be pretty rare these days. I've got some old ones (early 90's) that look yellow. If I order some now, they're almost all invariably orange - or if I'm particularly unlucky, a lime green. I'm not too surprised that these would be more orange-y than yellow, too.
