I'll have to order some cd4011's tomorrow. I only have a few cd4013's in my parts bin. I'll look at the data sheets and see if I can improvise. Thanks for the schematic Collin55.
I built a circuit using a LM3914. The only problem I ran into was using a 555 as a triangle wave generator. The top and bottom LED's would stay lit for a disproportionate time, and it was hard to adjust the span and time constant. If I turned one pot it would affect the range on the other.
That's why I tried building the circuit using the 4017. I wanted to make something that would use a pulse instead of depending on a changing voltage. I was hoping to make the flow seem more constant.
I'll also look into the function generator chips Crutschow, might be a good alternative to a 555, especially since I'm trying to run it at a very low frequency.
Boncuk, 5 LED's would be fine. I've been searching high and low for a circuit I could use to do this, but all I could find was a Knight Rider circuit. Do you have a schematic?
Thanks,
