This resource provides clear explanations of how switching regulators work and how voltage boosting is achieved efficiently ...

In this post, two LED blinking circuits are given below. First one is dancing bi-color LEDs (two different color LEDs) where the two color LED will run in sequence. In the second circuit, we will ...

We know that LED is a two terminal semiconductor device. It is used in most of the electronic circuits as a sign or visual representation to the normal human to know that circuit is working properly.

High-brightness LEDs, with independent delay and duration, find use in a visual-inspection application. This circuit is not complex, but it saved the day in an application involving visual inspection ...
