Hi All,
I am enlarging my original design (test_circuit.1.jpg) to power another set of 3 LEDs. In doing this on the proto board I saw the redundant parts in making 2 identical circuits running side by side.
Anyway, though of a test design (test_circuit.2.jpg) but am not sure about running it like this, 2 N-FETs [Q3,Q4] off of 1 NPN[Q1] + 1 current set R [R2] + overload R [R1]; instead of each N-FET having its own set.
Is the second schematic possible? I want to run up to 8 N-FETs with 1 set of components. Will make my footprint a hell of a lot smaller.
Thanks any input you might have!!!
