Yes, RGB light can make white light but it cannot make pure white. The process is to increase the basic three colors’ (red, green, and blue) intensities to their maximum. This will give the white light.
The RGB lights use 3 primary colors to make others. We know the combination of 3 primary colors gives white light. But the problem is, this light is not pure white. This combination seems to be covered with some fog.
How to Get Pure White Light from RGB?
We already know the answer to “Can RGB lights make white?”. The answer is yes but cannot make pure white. But if an additional diode is added with RGB, pure white light can be made. RGB uses 3 light-emitting diodes, whereas RGBW uses 4 of them. The 4th one is for white. This model gives the perfect white light.
What About Black Then?
RGB can also produce black. But it is not pure black as well. White light means the combination of RGB at their maximum intensities whereas black light means the combination at their lowest intensities.
FAQs
How do I get white from RGB?
By mixing the three primary colors at their maximum intensities, a white light can be got but that is not pure white.
What color LEDs make white?
Red, green, and blue LEDs combination makes white. But it is impure. Pure white can be achieved from RGBW (red, green, blue, and white.)
Actually, I am a student of Textile Engineering. I love playing games and RGB components. Besides, I used to sell various RGB products. So I have some ideas and experiences. Here I am to share mine with you through RGB For Gamers.
