[mircemk] built a slick-looking LED tester with a couple handy functions built in. Not only can one select a target current to put through an LED, but by providing a target voltage, the system will ...

Sometimes the most useful hacks are also the simplest ones. A case in point is the LED and resistor assembly that [Skippy] recently posted on his blog. The idea is to solder up some pre-made ...

The LED driver automatically adjusts the output voltage to keep the output current constant and therefore the light output constant. This works with a single LED or with a chain of string of LEDs ...

One of the easiest soldering projects to do as a beginner is to solder a resistor to an LED. You can technically put the ...

One of the questions that hobbyists ask over and over is how to select the value of a current limiting resistor for an LED. Usually the seat of the pants response is: “Subtract 2 V from the supply ...

The ubiquitous LED continues to expand frontiers and applications with a plethora of sizes, colors, and output lumens. Flashing LEDs that incorporate internal electronics for oscillation offer ...

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