espinobj Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 Im working on a circuit to work off of a car batt, and well to be honest I dont know where to go. Would you be willing to give me some help maybe if you have it some where a diagram?I have 10 LED's and I want 2 sets of five to flash more like strobe to be honest.This is the info on the LED'sLuminous Intensity: 27000mcd typ. @ 20mA MaxForward Current: 30mAPulse Current: 100mA for <= 10ms, duty <= 1/10Forward Voltage: 3.2V typ. 3.5V max @ 20mAMax Reverse Voltage: 5VPower Dissipation: 105mWOperating Temp: -30 to +85 CSoldering Temp: 265 C for 10 secsMax Reverse Current: 50uA @ 5VI would like it to flash very quickly 3 times then switch to the other side.Is there a way to control the speed and number of flashes?And how does it work being only 12v in but the lights are going to drain 32v?And a second question I would like a megaphone was well.Something that has like a siren, some other sounds, that old chitty chitty bang bang car horn would fricken awesome, and a microphone input would be cool. But this is secondary to the flashing lights.Is any of the possible? Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero999 Posted August 29, 2010 Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 There are all sorts of ways of making the patten generator, here's one idea. The LEDs will need to be driven using transistors and you'll need an LM7805 for the 74HC132.Where did you get 32V from? The highest voltage in the circuit is 12V.You can buy sirens from various suppliers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
