This means that you can only use them with low-power LEDs, but if you want to control a high-power LED light bulb then you need to use the microcontroller or SBC's output pin to switch the LED light bulb on and off (using a transistor).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe illuminata includes a transistor to switch its three high-brightness LEDs on and off. This is why the Illuminata has three pins. Two are for power and the third is the control pin that switches the lamp on and off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBelow you will find an example of how the board works\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vb4OGqE4u70\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3V to 6V operation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in MOSFET for PWM and on\/off control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-soldered pin headers (GND, Control and +V)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nBreadboard friendly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLaser-cut diffuser (\u003cstrong\u003esuperglue required\u003c\/strong\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCool Aluminum PCB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM2.5 mounting holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eResources\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDatasheet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePackage Contents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Illuminata board (pre-soldered)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Diffuser (\u003cstrong\u003esuperglue required!\u003c\/strong\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJumper wires, GPIO card and Raspberry Pi not included\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Monk Makes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43643793670205,"sku":"kgx1789695628656","price":4.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/9716\/8957\/files\/monkmakes-illuminata_1.jpg?v=1789695633","url":"https:\/\/laser-engraved-clasp.shop\/products\/monkmakes-illuminata","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
