Circuits Designed by Dave Johnson, P.E. :
  • Battery Free LED Flasher
    LED flashers have been used for a wide variety of applications.  Some flasher units have been used in food and hardware stores, to draw attention to sale items and are often attached to boxes which dispense product discount coupons. Typically, as the illustration below depicts, these simple units have a red LED, on each side of the housing.  Inside, is a battery and flasher circuit

Back & Forth Flasher -  for16 LEDs…. [Tony van Roon's circuit]
Bar-mode LED-cluster sequencer -  Bar-mode LED-cluster sequencer.  Can drive up to 16 clusters  (circuit added 6/07)
Basic FlashLamp Illumination Circuitry for Cellular Telephones/Cameras -  DN345  Design Notes (Linear Technology) (app note added 6/06)
Basic LED flasher circuit using NE555 timer IC -  Scroll down to find this one.  This circuit consumes more power, but it's advantage is when you need a variable flash rate, like for strobe circuits. You can actually use this circuit as a remote control for strobes that have a remote input. Of course, it has many other applications besides strobes.....(added 10/05)
Basic LM3909 LED Flasher -  runs from1.5-Volt battery…. [Tony van Roon's circuit]
Battery Free LED Flasher  - LED flashers have been used for a wide variety of applications.  Some flasher units have been used in food and hardware stores, to draw attention to sale items and are often attached to boxes which dispense product discount coupons.....[designed by David Johnson, P.E.]

Beat Tracking Strobe -  project description using AT90S8515 microcontroller and some electronics (added 5/03
Bicycle Back Safety Light -  this circuit has been designed to provide a clearly visible light, formed by 13 high efficiency flashing LEDs arranged in a pseudo-rotating order. Due to low voltage, low drain battery operation and small size, the device is suitable for mounting on bicycles as a back light, or to put on by jogger/walkers (schematic added 06/07/08)
Bike Light Flasher (Randy Linscott) -  This circuit will flash an incandescent light that you can purchase from Radio Shack. Adjust the VR's for your flash requirements and make sure that the lamp you use is designed to put out high brightness. (electronic design added 08/08/08)
Bike Turning Signal -  This circuit can be used to indicate left and right turn on a motor-bike. Two identical circuits will be needed, one for left and one for right….
Birthday Heart -  This circuit was made for my wife's birthday. It is capable of flashing five strings of LED's with different frequencies. It also has a connector for an 8 Ohm loudspeaker and two connectors for the small PCB's that are contained in musical greeting cards. In this way the circuit will play alternatingly two room filling tunes at regular time intervals. After a w.....
Brakelight Flasher -  This is basically a flasher circuit modified to turn on and off a bulb instead of a LED. It uses a 555 timer IC working as an astable multivibrator. The flashing rate can be varied from very fast to a maximum of once in 1.5 sec by varying  preset VR1.  The ON time of  circuit is given by: TON= 0.69xC1x(R1 + VR1) second and  OFF time is: TOFF= 0.69xC1xVR1 second..... [Radioland.nt.au]
Brakelight hookup -  This circuit is NOT a pulser or flasher! What's so special about this circuit? Well, the first third-brake light I installed I had to pull a wire from the Third Brake Light all the way underneath the carpet to the brake-pedal-switch and I thought it would be easier to pluck the signal of both brakelights via the trunk. Bench-test your circuit first and apply power to the circuit,.... [Tony van Roon's circuit]
