Make A Color Changing Display Using Arduino

LED Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

Custom made Multiple color display. Have you ever wanted a display that is a little larger then one you can buy? Have you ever wanted to make a display the way you wanted it? Me too! This is how I made a custom multiple color display that I use for temperature. Step 1: Supplies and

The MAX7219 and MAX7221 Led drivers

LED Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

These two integrated circuits from Maxim are for driving either 64 individual Led’s, or up to 8 digits of 7-segment displays. The drivers implement a SPI compatible slave interface that can be controlled from the Arduino using only 3 of the digital output pins. An extensive datasheet for the IC’s is available from the Maxim

Charlieplexing LEDs with an Arduino

LED Projects, Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

Charlieplexing is an ingenius method for controlling many LEDs without using many microcontroller pins. You can turn on or off one LED at a time. To light more than one LED at a time, you can scan the LEDs by turning a sequence of them on and off really fast. The number of LEDs you

Arduino BlinkyBall Project

LED Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

I frequent a blog called hackaday.com which featured a project by “Nikolai”, it was a 10cm LED ball that used shift registers. It seems like a really fun project to attempt but the cost of having the boards made & not having any experience sending eagle drawings to fab shops initially kept me from starting.

Blinky Lights using Arduino and LumiGeek

LED Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

I used the Arduino UNO combined with three LumiGeek shields to run lighting. LumiGeek has dedicated shields to support 1 Watt RGB LEDs that require constant current, Addressable RGB LED Strip, and Non-Addressable RGB LED Strip. Step 1: 1 Watt RGB LEDs (2x) I wired these in series and powered them with the 12 Volt

4X4X4 LED Cube w/ Arduino Un

LED Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

As someone who is very new to digital electronics this LED cube was fun to make, challenging and a great lesson in soldering. If you have some patience (64 LED’s to solder!) and steady hands, this project will be well worth it in the end! Step 1: Materials & Tools Materials: -64 LED’s ( I

LED Calculator with Rotary Quadrature Encoder for Target System Voltage Selection using Arduino

Calculator Projects, LED Projects, Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

I’m still working on the LED calculator (original idea and most recent work) — I’ve finally got ’round to adding a rotary encoder to set the target system voltage. Now you can turn the potentiometer to set the LED brightness, turn the rotary encoder to set what voltage will be used in the ultimate LED circuit, and

Arduino Led Dice

LED Projects, Projects / By Ibrar Ayyub

This instructable will show you how to create a dice using Arduino and few components. It’s an easy and fun project, suitable for beginners and those who want to start with Arduino; it also requires a minimal amount of components. This explains how to create it in the breadboard, how to solder it and how
