I am trying to create a signal using two LEDs a Red and a Green. The problem is that I am replacing LEDs in a different circuit. However, the Clear Red LED has a fwd Voltage of 2.2V and the Clear Green LED has a fwd V of 3.2 volts.
So when I put them in the circuit the Red is bright and the Green is just a little green dot.
DigiKey does not sell any Green LEDs, in the style I want, that have a lower Fwd V. of 2.2 Volts. Is there a way to add a component to equalize the voltages in both LEDs so they are both BRIGHT?
It seems that a resistor on the Green LED side would just drop the voltage more.
I wish I had paid closer attention in the EE classes I was forced to take in Civil/ Structural Engineering.
