Anode(+)
Cathode(-)
Need an easy way to remember?
A+ and C-
How do you remember that the longer lead is the positive one?
If you want an A+, you should have a LONG study session.
How do you remember that the flat edge of an LED represents the negative lead? (Assuming that the leads are the same length) Well, the flat edge sort of looks like a negative (-) sign, doesn’t it?
