A logic level N-channel high power MOSFET is used to create this RGB LED driver that would allow LED arrays or lamps of up to 5A per channel to be controlled without heatsink installed. A PIC16F863 is ...

Instructables user [Simon] admits he addicted to electronics. Lucky for him, his wife of 15 years is pretty cool with, or at least tolerant of his need to fiddle with anything that plugs in. As a gift ...

[Stan] built this LED matrix using a 16×16 grid of RGB LEDs. He built the hardware and wrote some subroutines to randomize the colors. He’s not using PWM because frame buffering is not feasible for ...

At first glance, using a microcontroller for a simple fancy light project is overkill. However, the existing design can be modified later without additional hardware. Often a few extra code lines will ...
