Controlling LEDs is really quite simple. As you know, they need to be current limited which is as easy as applying Ohm’s law to your given set of values. To make things even more even there’s a slew ...
The circuit is designed for power supply protection by limiting the amount of maximum output current to prevent any further damage to take place inside the power supply as well as the external circuit ...
Adding a clamp circuit to the well known current-limiter protects the "pass" transistor from over-currents when load faults occur. Most readers are probably familiar with two-terminal current-limiting ...
Current-limiting regulators protect the circuits they feed but don't necessarily protect themselves against excessive dissipation. Here is an Idea For Design with a regulator that does both. A current ...
This simple and cheap circuit is not just for Christmas! There are just two resistors, a small-signal transistor such as a BC547, one ‘flashing’ LED and a string of ‘normal’ LEDs. The flashing LED ...
