"USB Christmas Lights"

This illustration is based upon (and takes its title from) Fig 5 of Dr Eddie Insam's USB Article in Electronics World, February 2002.

It demonstrates the connection of eight LEDs to a USBMOD2 module from FTDI.

In this illustration, a linear LED array has been used; it also shows the correct connections for the capacitor (the wrong pin position is shown in the article, although the legend given is correct):
