Can you draw that out? That will be easier for us to see.Ishikawa said:Another thing which I forgot to mention, to light up leds in a certain sequence or pattern does each led have to be connected to a wire, can't the leds be connected together and then connect the necessary wires to the first and last led at most without touching the other leds and achive the pattern I described above?
Thanks
Ishikawa said:So I'm mostly curious is how did he manage to do that with only 5 wires connected to the circuit.
Nigel Goodwin: Don't forget, he's only switching four LED's, not five, the 5th is permanently wired
Ishikawa said:That is how the heart is turning on, so if u look at the rows of the same color, each is a stage so if u count them excluding the first on because it is alway on u have another 8 stages turning on one after the other and when they reach the (light blue dot) they start turning off on one after the other until they reach the first one (red dot) and then they turn on again, this is done 3 times and then all the leds blink 3 times and then they turn on in they way I just described and so on.
so how can he turn on the other 8 stages with only 4 wires left?
Ishikawa said:That is also one of the reasons y I believe he doesn't seem to be using IC chips. Very hard to power up an IC hip on 3.6V battery
Nigel Goddwin : Don't you think mobile phones use chips?.
Ishikawa said:I just noticed that with the charlieplexing method will probably be hard to keep each row of leds ON like it is shown in the pictures.
This method will turn them ON and turn them off by the time it turns ON the next row of leds.
