Time will always be“of the essence” for professional engineers and amateur enthusiasts alike. This can certainly be said about the process of designing circuits involving Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs).

[mircemk] built a slick-looking LED tester with a couple handy functions built in. Not only can one select a target current to put through an LED, but by providing a target voltage, the system will ...

Here is an excellent resource, certainly worth bookmarking if you are creating your own LED lighting systems - the LED series/parallel array wizard. It describes itself: The LED series/parallel array ...

The project is originally designed as LED calculator but the addition of a rotary encoder to set the target system voltage results to adjusting the LED brightness using the potentiometer. By turning ...

An LCD module DMC-16207 of 2×16 was used for prototyping the LED calculator since it uses the Hitachi chipset to produce a view around 3 ½” wide. An LCD module DMC-16207 of 2×16 was used for ...

This paper dial makes selecting current limiting resistors a snap. [Giorgos Lazaridis] came up with the tool, which he describes in detail in the Worklog tab of his writeup. If you want one of your ...
