Hi
After some research about electronics projects for beginners, I decided to have a try designing a RGB LED driver circuit.
Heres my rough schematic:
https://ibb.co/dTgUtS
I would like to control the color of the LEDs and their brightness. Because the LEDs have common cathodes, i found a constant current load circuit based on LM339 OpAmp IC. My desire is to feed up to 25mA per single diode of every colour so around 750mA on full brightness on every colour.
Question 1:
Does it even have any chance to work?
Question 2:
Can it run on a 9V battery? If not on single one then on two in parallel?
Quesrtion 3 (if question 1 has a positive answer):
Would it be better to change the MOSFET on the NE555 to N-channel one and repurpose it to pull the OpAmps to ground rather than feed PWM to 5V voltage stabilizer ?
Thanks for the answers and sorry for my severe stupidity if that is the case
