DC Lamp Dimmer Circuit using IC 555
In this post I have explained how to use the control pin#5 of the IC 555 to build a simple PWM controlled DC light dimmer circuit. The proposed DC lamp dimmer can be used for controlling the light intensity of any DC lamp having an operating voltage anywhere between 6 V and 12 V. The […]
LED Driver Power Supply Circuit Using Dimmer Switch
In this post I have explained an effective and efficient high current compact LED Driver power supply using a dimmer switch gadget. In one of my other posts I discussed a high voltage transformerless power supply circuit that used a triac for controlling the capacitive output, however since the concept involved shorting the capacitive output […]
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 […]
3D Moon-Sphere LED Driver with Charger and Dimmer Circuit
In this post I have explained how to build a homemade LED driver with dimmer and charger circuit for illuminating a 3D moon from a 5V USB source. The idea was requested by Mr. John Sweden. Circuit Objectives and Requirements I’ve been a visitor to your website for many years and wonder if I may […]
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 […]
