Hello everyone!
Couldn't find a forum section for "complete newbie questions" so I posted here.
I am new, as in new to the forums AND new to electronics, so try to bear with me as I get started. I studied some bare basics of electronics over a decade ago and wanted to get started on a new project, starting with something small and fairly simple, yet not just something I can pick up readymade from the store.
Here is a very simple image of what I want to do (this is for a miniature model project)
As you can see, the plan calls for a controller circuit that will cause 2 groups (A and B) of LED's to blink in turn in a specific pattern. Can you guys point me in the right direction as to where I could find tutorials or materials I would require? As I am thinking of it, I would just need a single blinker that turns the LED's on and off, and a way to alternate between which group of LED's is lit and which one is not.
