This transformerless mains power supply circuit will allow flashing of a Bi-color 100 LED string, in an alternately switching red, green effect. Using 2-pin Bi-color LEDs The proposed circuit can be used as a Bi-color LED flasher, for generating an alternate red, green flashing effect over a string of 100 LEDs. Bi-color LEDs are available […]

Simple RGB LED Color Mixer Circuit using LM317 IC
In this post I have explained a simple LM317 IC based RGB 3 watt LED color mixer circuit, which can be used for demonstrating the color mixing effects of red, blue, green colors as specified in the standard color charts. The idea was requested by Mr.Praveen. Technical Specifications My name is Pravin, I work in […]
Understanding Color Codes of Resistors with Practical Examples
In this post I will comprehensively explain regarding the various standard resistor color codes, and systems employed for assigning resistors their specific values. The post also explains how to read and identify resistor values from their color codes. By: S. Prakash The color codes used in resistors denote a leaded resistor’s value. These color codes […]
Color Detector Circuit with Arduino Code
In this post I will show how to construct a circuit which can detect color and trigger respective assigned relays. This project is accomplished using TCS3200 color sensor and Arduino board. Color Sensing by TCS3200 If you haven’t read the previous article, please go through it where we have discussed the basics of color sensing […]
