Fading a light source in and out automatically.
I've got a low voltage PWM unit which is controlled by a DC voltage. Can
be used for motor or light control etc. In this case I want to use it to drive high power LEDs. Which it does just fine. What I want to do is have it ramp up to max when a switch is made, and ramp down to minimum when it's opened. I've experimented with RC circuits which do sort of work - but don't give a linear fade in and fade out. Any clever ideas? Preferably using just one cheap IC that I'll have in my box...;-) It would also be nice to arrange things so it takes no current when the switch is off. Although I can get round this. -- *Why are a wise man and a wise guy opposites? Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |
