The ubiquitous LED continues to expand frontiers and applications with a plethora of sizes, colors, and output lumens. Flashing LEDs that incorporate internal electronics for oscillation offer ...

This is a simple flashing led circuit with 2 leds and 2 NPN transistors. It illustrates the behavior of transistors and capacitors and if you use an oscilloscope it will be very easy to determine what ...

[Eric Wasatonic] had a box of SWB2433 transistors that he had very little information about. In order to discover their properties, he fired up his curve tracer to compare these transistors with more ...

With cycling safety in mind, I bought a pair of low power red LED things that replace the bungs in the end of drop handlebars. They are a neat way to get a bit of extra visibility – and to give a ...

The flashing is thanks to LEDs with a built-in, integrated flashing circuit and the nasty noise comes from a piezoelectric buzzer — both are available from electronics stores that sell ordinary LEDs.

The circuit has been constructed to provide an in-circuit system that will test the integrity of electronic components such as Silicon Controlled Rectifiers, diodes, and PNP or NPN transistors. 4093 – ...

You know how it is. You’ve got that new project running, and while it doesn’t consume much power, it also doesn’t give much indication of whether it’s functioning or just sitting there with a dead ...

My teacher friend was looking for Christmassy technology ideas for a science + engineering club. And I said that flashing leds might be good, and if you can get three phases going, you can have a ...
