Making a 10/12 watt LED Lamp with 12 V Adapter
In this post I have explained the construction of a homemade 10 watt LED lamp using ready made 12 V SMPS adapter. The project was successfully built by Mr. Debabrata Mandal. In many of previous posts I have discussed the use of 1 watt white LEDs for making high efficiency LED lamps for implementing in […]
10 LED Tachometer Circuit Diagram
In this post I have explained how an accurate 10 LED tachometer circuit can be built using ordinary parts like IC 555 and IC LM3915. The idea was requested by Mr. Munsif. What is a Tachometer A tachometer is a device which is used for measuring vehicle engine RPM. Thus, it is basically used for […]
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 […]
Simplest 100 Watt LED Bulb Circuit
In this article I have explained a very simple 100 watt LED bulb circuit using a few high voltage capacitors. The entire circuit could be built at a cost less than $25. I have already discussed many capacitive type of transformerless power supply circuits in this blog, however all these suffers from a couple of […]
Fading an LED ON/OFF – Arduino Basics
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 […]
