Re: Need LED strobe light cc't diagrame

But i try to use Rksk 1st circut diagrame (hand written one) + above circut final diagrame(ledstr.png). Will I have to do any modification using this cc't with 50nos white led with using 230v and without transformes?
Don't you need flashing with the 555 timer technique. Do you only need to light up 50 LEDs directly from 230 ?

If you need to flash them with a 555 timer as on above circuit, you will need to step down 230 VAC to 12 VDC to use the same circuit (You can also step down to say 24 VDC but you will have to change the 555 timer circuit since the 555 IC mostly support input voltages from 4.5V to 15V).

To connect 48 LEDs, you can connect another line (6 LEDs per line) as same as the circuit uses 3 lines at the moment. You will have to change the 5.6 Ohm (5R6) resistor to 10 Ohm to control current.

Anyway if you need to bypass the 555 timer circuit and directly power the LEDs through 230VAC, you can work our Rksk's suggestions to make a transformer less circuit. Consider getting the required current from the circuit. Typically 5mm LEDs are having forward voltage: 2V and forward current (mA): 20mA. If you connect 50 LEDs, you will need 1A. So the design concern should be to build the power supply to provide 1A.

If you can use a little AC-to-DC power supply, you can directly use this without any modification.

Thanks SevenZero
This is the one i need. now i have power pack 12V/1.8W . will it be ok for this matter? I need drive 56LED (5W-5mm White)
What is the best way to soldering this 56Leds ?

  • each 1 ohm resistor dissipates 0.4 mW (1/4W is enough)
  • the 470 ohm resistor dissipates 188 mW (use 1/2W)
  • together, all resistors dissipate 191.6 mW
  • together, the LEDs dissipate 2240 mW
  • total power dissipated by the array is 2431.6 mW
  • the array draws current of 200 mA from the source
  • you must use a 2.4W power supply (1.8W is not enough)

Thanks. But i can't buy transformer for this. Don't you have any good idea for drive 56nos white led?

What do you think my idea picture (Led+560)
This is low budjet project. Pls. Help me.

If you can find a cheap phone charger that is marked with 12V and more than 200mA, that would be fine. Those are the cheapest power supplies nowadays. Not durable but okay for few months.

I have 9v 400MA transformer, when i conect it DC cc't it will 11.8v 400ma. will it be ok? Whta about led soldering methad ? My idea (picture led+560) it will be ok?

You can rearrange the LEDs and change the value of resistors to compensate with that power supply.

However, if you put 2 LEDs per line (there will be 56/2 = 28 lines) as in your picture, it will take 28 x 20mA = 560mA which your power supply can't tolerate. You can make it in the following way.
