In this post I have explained a basic Arduino function where I have explained the process of fading an LED ON/OFF through some basic code implementations. Creating a Fading Effect We see how to use an analogwrite() function in order to implement a fading ON/OFF of an LED. The function incorporates PWM pulses across a […]

How to Drive High Watt LEDs with Arduino
In this post I have explained the method of incorporating high watt LEDs with Arduino through external high voltage supplies. The question was put forth by Mr. Cole. The Circuit Question I stumbled upon your blog and I love it! So much great information and great ideas Right now I am trying to figure out […]
Arduino Random RGB Light Generator Circuit
The article discusses a simple,Arduino red, green, blue LED light effect generator circuit in a random pattern. In one of the earlier posts we came across a similar RGB LED effect generator circuit using Arduino which was programmed to produce the effect in a flowing sequential manner, whereas here the set up can be expected […]
Simple LED Tubelight Circuit
An LED tube-light is lighting device built using high efficiency LEDs for illuminating a premise where it is installed, through the available AC mains supply. In this post I have explained the complete construction details of a simple LED light tube light circuit using 20 mA, 5 mm high bright white LEDs. The circuit can […]
Infrared (IR) LED Flood Light Circuit
An infrared flood light is a circuit that creates an illumination over a wide range of area using infrared frequency. This infrared illuminated area can be perfectly visualized through specialized infrared gasses and IR cameras, but can be totally invisible to naked eye. In this post we study a simple infra red based flood light […]
LED Strobe Light Circuit with Chasing, Flashing Effects
The proposed LED strobe light circuit will not only flash a group of LEDs with strobe pulses, but will also create a sequentially chasing effect over the strobing LEDs. You might be quite familiar with colorful LED strobe lights, and should have seen them pretty commonly in parties and discotheques. Let’s see how we can […]
