This is an easy tutorial showing how you can control the brightness of an LED or adjust the speed of a DC fan using Arduino Board, a small BC547 transistor and a potentiometer. In my example the whole ...

In a previous article, I discussed LEDs in general and their properties. In this write-up, I want to give some examples of driving LEDs and comparing a few of the most commonly used methods. There is ...

I have spent at least an hour almost every day since the 80’s advancing my knowledge in electronics. Recently I brushed up my knowledge on LED fading secrets and attained something pleasant. Now, I’d ...

Call it synchronicity, or manually setting a 16-bit number in an Arduino, or how to turn an OLED into a rotary dial... What am I talking about? Well, I was just compiling the blogs pages for the next ...

Dimming LEDs is an important feature in many of today’s solid state lighting applications. While many implementations for dimming LEDs in the market today rely on PWM modulation of the LED driving ...
