Best Answer

LED (light emitting diode) is an electronic component that generates light from the electrons flowing in one direction through it, in an electron circuit, possibly as part of a circuit board. In a circuit the light emission can be a short as a nanosecond. One or more LED's can be used to make light with a minimum of electricity. Modern applications are wide spread including optical sensor activators, calculator displays and automotive tail lights. LED's have come down in price and can last for tens of thousands of hours so have become an economical replacement for other lights in some applications.
