  • Page 5 Testing the Assembled Board Once the components have been soldered to the PCB, test the assembly, preferably with a current-limited 12V power supply. 1. Connect the +12V power supply lead to the Common (C) lead from the MR-16 board. 2. Connect the ground power supply lead to each of the Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B) wires, while monitoring the current consumption using an ammeter or the power supply’s current indication.
  • Page 6: Technical Description

    Technical Description The circuit diagram below shows the MR-16 schematic. Eighteen LEDs are connected in series with three LEDs in each group. Either 5mm (RLED1 – RLED6, GLED1 – GLED6, BLED1 – BLED6) or piranha (4-pin) LEDs (LED1 – LED18) can be populated on the board. Current is limited to 20mA by the series resistors (R1 – R6) for each set of LEDs.
