About the 555-Blinky-Chaser PCB
555-Blinky-Chaser is an open source PCB design by suhaan2485, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 56 × 98.6 mm, with 19 components from 10 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the NE555P and 4017. By type, the board carries 10 diodes, 2 ICs, 2 connectors, 2 capacitors and 2 resistors.
From the project
I made this through project a hack club stasis guide, this is an led chaser which blinks 10 LEDs in a variable speed sequence
I have made a simple Blinky Chaser PCB which will repeat 10 LEDs light in a specific sequence using simple resistors, capacitors and the main NE555 Module, You Can See the Live Demo Video Below or checout the "Live Demo.mp4" linked in this repo.
