This is a circuit in which LED glows slowly in the beginning, then grows brighter and once again slowly it becomes dim. The basis of the whole circuit is an operational amplifier IC named LM358. This ...

Frank Hertel’s project: three individually dimmable LED lights. (Frank is the master of recycling; the wooden mounting pedestals are the panels from a decommissioned ATI console!) Thanks for your ...

This is a very simple LED dimmer circuit which has 2 transistors, 1 resistor and 2 potentiometers. Typical segment displays LEDs consume around 25 mA for each segment and should be limited to this ...
