This diode should allow be low voltage drop - to get the LEDs working at lower speeds. | This diode should allow be low voltage drop - to get the LEDs working at lower speeds. | ||
Need to be >10V barrier. Higher barrier gives higher drops. So chosen 15V barrier diode. | Need to be >10V barrier. Higher barrier gives higher drops. So chosen 15V barrier diode. | ||
