The typical operating current for a lightemitting diode is approximately:

  1. 1 to \( 5 m A \)
  2. 5 to \( 20 m A \)
  3. 20 to \( 500 m A \)
  4. 500 to \( 2000 m A \)

Correct answer: 5 to \( 20 m A \)

Solution

A standard light-emitting diode is normally operated at a modest current so it emits light without being damaged. The common range is about 5 to 20 mA, which matches typical indicator LED specifications.
