Hello.
I have a simple circuit consisting of a 12VDC supply and an led listed as follows:
Blue 1500mcd 3.5V 20mA Blue
The circuit is currently open at the - terminal of the LED.
If I meter where the 2 arrows indicate, i am expecting to see ~3.5V, however I see 12. The resistor meters at the expected ~510 Ohms.
Can anyone shed any light on this for me?
Thanks!
