Circuits Designed by Dave Johnson, P.E. :
  • High Power LED Flasher    
    Power LEDs are becoming more popular these days.  The DC input power to these devices ranges from 1 watt to 5 watts.  Normal LEDs only receive about 0.05 watts.  At this higher power, these devices can emit a lot of light.  You can buy them in just about any color in the rainbow but white seems to be the most popular.  One application for these devices is a flashing light.  If the flash duration and flash rate is kept low, the average current can be low enough that even a small battery can last quite a while.....

Gag Circuits:  magic lamp, dripper (improved!, remote control jammer (added 7/03)

Grantronics Projects Christmas Tree:  flashes LEDs mounted to Christmas tree shape PCB, kit from kitsrus.com (added 4/02)

Hacking the Kodak Max Single Flash Camera into a Self Repeating Strobe:  this approach is recommended mainly for homebrewing a strobe that is powered by a single1.5 volt battery. If you can use a higher supply voltage, there are better ways to do this. (added 6/03)

Halloween Flashing-Eyes Badge:  Two-LEDs act as eyes following the rhythm of music or speech.  3V Battery-operated device suitable for pins or badges.  (added 4/08)

Knight Rider Lights Project:  for 6 LEDs (added 4/02)

Knight Rider:  (design added 11/06)

Knightrider lights for model cars:  This simple circuit drives 6 LEDs in 'Knightrider scanner mode'. Power consumption depends mainly on the type of LEDs used if you use a 7555 (555 CMOS version).   (electronic circuit added 11/06)
