How Do You Make Flashing LED Circuit Board?
A fun hobby for electronic enthusiasts is making a flashing LED circuit board. You can use a flashing LED circuit board with other projects such as making flashing signs or billboards, building toys, robots, Christmas decorations and many more. Electronics manufacturers use LED indicators, such as those you see in servers, computers and network hardware. There are flashing LED kits available in the market, but you can also make your own so that you can create the pattern as elaborate as you want it to be.

It should show the locations for the LED output, LED lights, ohm resistors, 9-volt battery and clip as well as the 555 timer. For a sample of LED flashing circuit design, see Resources below. Print your design using a Laserjet printer. Use a photo basic gloss paper to print your diagram. Cut it to the actual size of the schematic diagram. Tape the prin
