Hello all,
I'm very new to EE and am hoping someone can help me with a project I'd like to do.
Basically, I want to hit a switch and light up a sequence of (5) LEDs one at a time and keep them powered on. The order would be (3mm LEDs) red, yellow, white, green, red. If it's not too difficult to also have the final three light up at the same time. I'm hoping to be able to fit this in a 3" by 3" enclosure and power it by battery.
As far as I've been able to determine it seems that I could use resistors in between the LEDs to create a cascading effect or if I'm understanding it correctly I could use an LM3419 display driver.
Anyone who could help me along, explain the steps involved, schematics or the like would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
