Looking for a simple circuit to control the light intensity of Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) or similar lighting sources? Here is an Arduino based circuit with three independent pulse width modulated ...

Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software. Anyone interested in creating interactive objects can “play” with Arduino! Described ...

[Alex] needed a project for his microcomputer circuits class. He wanted something that would challenge him on both the electronics side of things, as well as the programming side. He ended up ...

Today we are going to create a strobe light for the tips of the wings of an rc airplane using a 555 timer (NE 555 or lm 555 IC) this circuit is very easy to make with few components and most ...

Description: Using an Arduino or a micro controller, we can generate cool-looking patterns with an led strip containing addressable LEDs. In this case, I'm using an Arduino uno (clone board) and a ...

In a previous article, I discussed LEDs in general and their properties. In this write-up, I want to give some examples of driving LEDs and comparing a few of the most commonly used methods. There is ...

The Arduino is a great way for hobbyists and pros alike to experiment with programmable objects, but it can be confusing for beginners without these tools.
