Motor Speed Control with MAX4295 circuit diagram

This is a motor speed controller circuit diagram built based Maxim MAX4295. This with this circuit you will be able to control the speed of motor rotation.

Motor Speed Control with MAX4295 circuit diagram

Resistor R1 biases the potentiometer to match the input range of U1. Full counter-clockwise rotation of the pot corresponds to maximum-speed reverse rotation of the motor. Mid-scale on the pot corresponds to motor off, and full clockwise rotation of the pot produces maximum-speed forward rotation in the motor.

LED Color Fade Effect circuit diagram

LED Color Fade Effect circuit diagram

This is the circuit of LED color fade effect. Just like the name of the circuit, the light intensity of LEDs in this circuit will fade from high  intensity to low intensity and then off.

Running LEDs circuit diagram

Running LEDs circuit diagram

This is running LEDs circuit which use timer ID NE555N and logic IC 4017N. IC 555 act as a multivibrator and generate frequency to be used for 4017 clock input. R2 is a linear potensiometer to adjust clock frequency and of course the frequency of the blinking LEDs as well.
