Re: Is there a IC for sale that controls a RGB led ?
Hi,
sorry for the late reply, i wasn't here for some time.
I was fighting with the controller to teach it additional tricks. But now it's done.
This is, what it can do now:
- colorfading, speed adjustable in 256 steps
- random colorchanging, speed adjustable in 256 steps
- colorfading strobe, flashing speed adjustable in 256 steps
- random colorchanging strobe, flashing speed adjustable in 256 steps
- fire simulation
- intensity of R(,B,G)-channel adjustable in 256 steps, to mix static colors
- 'white light' dimmer (256 steps), where all 3 channels are driven with the same intensity
- 'freeze'-button to stop colorchanging(-fading, fire simulation) FX and show the actual color permanently.
- on/off button to switch the LEDs on and off, changing is stopped, when LEDs are off
- operated via 6 buttons
I wanted to add some more features, but now the PIC12c508 is filled to the top except 1 byte program memory and 1 bit RAM, so there is no more room for more tricks...
Is there a way to post the schematic and some pictures?
