In this post I have explained a simple LED flashing beacon circuit which exactly simulates a rotating police beacon light by generating alternating pulses of suddenly rising and fading illumination effect on the connected LED. The idea was requested by Mr. Ankit Agarwal Technical Specifications Can you advice on how to make the following circuit […]
Newly Updated Circuit Projects:
Simple Scrolling RGB LED Circuit
A simple RGB (Red, Green, Blue) moving or scrolling LED display can be made using a few 4017 ICs. I have explained the procedure in detail. Understanding RGB LED RGB LEDs have become quite popular these days due to its three-in-one color feature, and because these can be driven independently using three distinct supply sources. […]
Transformerless Constant Current LED Driver Circuit
In this post I have explained how just a single IC MBI6001 can be used as a transformerless constant current LED driver circuit for illuminating a chain of many LED in series. The MBI6001 series of ICs are designed to work with mains AC inputs and convert it into a lower voltage DC output which […]
CREE XM-L T6 LED Driver Circuit – Specifications and Practical Application
This article explains how to illuminate a Cree XM-L T6 LED using a current controlled driver circuit while the supply input is from a battery, or in case a mains SMPS is intended as the driver unit. The idea was requested by Mr. Jaco. Technical Specifications Thanks for the great advice and circuits! Have you […]
LED Strip Light Dimmer Controller Circuit
In this post I have explained a simple IC 555 based PWM controller circuit which may be used for controlling the intensity of a specified LED bank or an 12V LED strip light. The idea was requested by Mr. Rajdeep. Technical Specifications Fantastic blog you have got. I learnt many things from your blog. I […]
1 watt LED Lamp Circuit Diagram using SMD LEDs
The post comprehensively discusses the construction procedure of a 1 watt LED lamp using SMD LEDs such as 3528 smd LEDs or 2214 SMD LEDs. I have explained the details. 1 Watt LED vs 3528 smd LEDs or 2214 SMD LEDs Today 1 watt LEDs are very popular and these are utilized in most LED lamp […]
