THankyou again for your reply. If I change my circuit to simple parallel LEDs, then use 3V to drive Red in series with 1.8Ohm. and use 4V to drive Blue and green LED in 2 separate circuit with collect to 1Ohm resistors in 6W is it Ok?


It will be terrible. There is no way that your current sources will be stiff enough to cope with the variations of LED performance with age and temperature. Like Erik says you need proper Constant Current drivers.

      Test            01/01/70 00:00      
   Try PNP instead of NPN            01/01/70 00:00      
      Both method            01/01/70 00:00      
         Increase the voltage accross the load            01/01/70 00:00

            RGB LED's Luminous            01/01/70 00:00      
         even considering voltage will get you in            01/01/70 00:00      
            Explain more            01/01/70 00:00      
               simple, drop the multiplexing            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Will this work            01/01/70 00:00

                           can't say            01/01/70 00:00      
                              probably means 2981            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 if so, you just don't get it do you            01/01/70 00:00
