Hey guys,
I am looking to build an LED scanner/chaser for my next electronics projects. I want it to consist of around 30 blue LEDs (3.1fV @ 20mA), have an on/off switch, buttons or a knob that will change the speed (I believe I would use a potentiometer for this), and also a button that will allow me to switch between multiple patterns for the LEDs. I want to hook this up to my car; so that is what will be powering it. I know that this is going to require integrated circuits but I am completely new to them. If someone could get me started on the right track, I will begin to make a schematic.
Thanks for any help in advance.
