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. […]
LED Obstruction Light Circuit
Obstruction lights are warning lights that we see at the top of tall structures like towers and skyscrapers, installed for indicating the aircrafts and other flying objects about these obstructions. These lights alert the flying aircrafts regarding the minimum height they should maintain above these tall structures to avoid a possible collision and accidents. Obstruction […]
Rotating LED Chakra Circuit for God Idols
LED Chakra is an ornamental lighting system which depicts or imitates a rotating wheel like appearance, by means of sequentially shifting Illuminated LED arrays. Indian subcontinent is a land of festivals and celebrations which mostly start from the month of August and continues until the New Year. All these festivals have one fundamental thing in […]
Underwater LED Boost Converter Circuit with Dimmer
In this post I have explained an LED controller circuit having a boost and dimming facility specifically designed for underwater shooting application. The idea was requested by Mr. Svein. The Circuit Request I came across your blog at https://www.homemade-circuits.com and thought I’d ask you a question regarding building or modifying a LED driver. I planning […]
Beacon Level Indicator Circuit for Combine Harvester Grain Tanks
In this post I have explained a beacon indicator circuit for combine harvester grain tanks. The idea was requested by Mr. John Bosch. Circuit Objectives and Requirements I would like to retrofit the rotating beacon grain tank level indicator system shown below, to my older combine harvester. The particular part of the system I want […]
