How can voltage burn out an LED?


I understand how a current higher than what the LED is rated for can burn out an LED, but how does something equivalent happen with voltage?



If the correct current is on an LED but the voltage is too high, what causes it to burn out?


I just don't see what effect voltage has on the LED.

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
