Hey folks,
I'm trying to build this LED flasher circuit that I found online. I've got limited electronics experience, but i'm learning more everyday.
Here's the circuit diagram:
I've got everything i need except the transistors. Looking at the Radio Shack website, I see a stunning array of available transistors and I've no idea what i should be looking for.
Some more info on the application:
I'll be using an 11.4v Lipo battery in an RC airplane. I'll be powering a 3.6v*20mA*1100mcd white LED.
I've determined that the transistor on the left is a NPN and the transistor on the right is a PNP, but i don't know what values i should be looking for.
The resistors are no issue, but would a "1.0µF 35V 20% Dipped Tantalum Capacitor" (electrolytic capacitor) be appropriate?.....(radioshack model # 272-1434)
