Led blinker circuits
I just started the creation of my new pc case which is looks like the CM-5 supercomputer and already I have hit problems. The CM-5 has a massive strip of blinking led's on the front controlled by it's 65+ thousand cpu's. While mine can't possibly be that complex, I decided to go smaller. I need to find a schematic that can allow two-three different sets of 80 leds to blink in different times. It can go no less than .5 seconds between blink cycles and can be powered by 12v. Once the case is done, i will show you all.

Re: Led blinker circuits
Odd question for a non-gaming site
Thought I had something for you but no images show. I do think thier bandwidth was exceeded for this month. I sure hope so, as this is a very helpful, basic site. http://www.cpemma.co.uk/index.html Check his links page as it offers much.
Another basic but good site http://www.kpsec.freeuk.com/proj.htm Look it over and discover.
If your in The States(update your profile, as I did mine, plz) allelectronics.com has scads of LED goodies.Comment

Re: Led blinker circuits
I know exactly what the leds do. In jurassic park, there were eight of these beasts and the leds went from side to side. eight rows went to the left and then another eight to the right and so on until you reached the bottom of the unit. They leds also never lined up more than three in a row so it seem randomized.
I didn't know that my profile wsa incomplete. thanks for that and i live in canada.Find Nedry!

Re: Led blinker circuits
pentium, the first link I posted is back with images. Sure to find some usefull info there. The British sites are great for DIY stuff. Kind of puts the great back into Great Britain
MD, I so want to spend a week motorbiking around your Island. It might be the closest I ever get to the rural portion of the British Isles.*sigh*Comment

pentium, a site you might want to mark http://led.linear1.org/ I saw it posted elsewhere and thought you might like/need it. ;-)
MD, w/120W heated riding gear, cool, wet weather riding on clean rural roads is a treat=no tourists wearing funny cloths and no real traffic.

Re: Led blinker circuits
Info filled link pentium. Looking it over was time well spent by me.
A fella I know designs Christmas displays and I contacted him to see what he might offer you. He said, although it's aimmed at 110VAC displays, the forums at planetchristmas.com are very friendly/supportive of such projects and will offer you info&parts links for this deal...Just a thought.Comment

Re: Led blinker circuits
I already have the led's. I managed to find at my job a trashed led display sign with more than enough parts. I will look into that forum anyways (while it means another membership, another password).Find Nedry!

I recently got my hands on a 60" Panasonic P60ZT60 plasma tv (european model) that has some strange issues along with an 8 blink code.
It know this tv is getting old but it was once considered one of the best plasmas ever made, and i think it is still holds on to that even by todays standards.
So, long story short. When i first got the tv it had a very bright washed out picture with very raised blacks in all picture modes and i couldn't find the cause in the picture setting menus.
After doing a factory reset this problem was gone and the picture was back to...01-06-2025, 06:02 AM -
I write this to maybe help another with this TV.
So I aquired this TV a 2023 model. It started the 2 blink reboot problem which indicates bad panel. It was still under warranty and the repair man came by.
The Samsung repairman brought a brand new panel and switched my original boards to the new panel. The new panel then had the 2 blink error code. The repair guy said he has seen this and the MAIN board on this model will cause the 2 blink. He then replaced the main/power board (they are both connected) and put it back onto my original panel. Voila it worked.

Hi everyone,
I'm new here and trying to repair my Panasonic TX-P50V10E plasma TV, which is currently showing the 6 red blink error code.
Just for context: I'm used to building PCs and installing modchips in old consoles, but this is my first time trying to fix a TV. I'm French, and while my English is okay, I'm using ChatGPT to help translate and clarify my messages as much as possible — so please forgive any odd phrasing.
I'm also not very experienced with using a multimeter, but I'm very motivated and ready to follow instructions carefully and report... -
Pioneer Kuro Pro 111FD 8 blink red LED.
I have been trying to solve the power-down 8-blink red LED problem with my Pioneer.
So far I have replaced the power supply board, and the digital assembly board, I have reconnected the ribbons to all boards, ensuring the connections are good. Even though the problem is the 8 red light error and not the more common 8 blue light error code, I had Kcrownie,

Years ago my tv gave a 7 blink code which turned into 8 during diagnosis. I had ordered a replacement ss board but somehow the tv started working again and i never used the board. Now a week ago my tv flickered and shut off at random and gave the 8 blink error code. The same issue it had all those years ago. The only difference this time is that over the last few months there has been some purple and green tinge that comes and goes in more solid colors such as white.
Anyway i checked all the screws and replaced the ss board with a known good one and still got 8 blinks. I saw a...
