This LED flasher give similar circuit with the previous transistor LED flasher, but this circuit use a 555 integrated circuit chip as the active component. Here is the schematic diagram of the LED flasher circuit: This circuit gives alternating LED flashing, but with different flashing period between LED 1 and LED 2. The [...]

Testing whether a transistor is shorted or open usually done by ohm meter. You test if the base to emitter or collector permit a current flow in one direction. Here is the circuit’s schematic diagram: The 555 timer ( IC1 ) operate as a 12hz oscillator. The output of this oscillator (pin 3) [...]
