Hello guys,
So my dad has a retail store and he was going to buy something from someone that makes the sign flicker. thing is that it was 500 dollars!
i am in a circuits class and i was thinking that i can use either an OP-AMP or a function generator. and my friend said that i can also use a 555 timer for this. my problem is that i know how to change the frequency of the sign using the function generator since i just turn the dial left or right. but how can i do this using an Op amp or a 555 timer. also my friend suggested that i shouldnt buy a function generator because it can do way more than what i need, and that it would be a waste of 200 dollars if i buy one just to flicker a sign.
any suggestions guys?
