Any Star Trekkies here? By the way, have you went to the cinema and watched the Star Trek, The Movie yet?

No matter you’re the Star Trek’s fan or not, you will still love this Triangular LED Animation, as this stuff is very futuristic and ‘3D’ enough!

For your information, this project is based on the PIC16F628A and Simple LED Animation Kit with the combination with red/green LEDs arranged in a triangle. The three sides of the triangle are fully-connected in parallel form. In this case, the PIC16F628A is controlling only six bicolor LEDs while the other 12 LEDs are individual elements.

Between the triangular arrangements, it’s possible to create a large number of different animations. Hence, the animation sequence takes 10 minutes to repeat.

Before you’re getting started, you should think and plan wisely about the design, especially the white board for your PCB. This step is to eliminate any unwanted consequences while you’re building this Triangular LED Animation.

By the way, you need to apply a regulated power supply into the project. However, if you can’t find any suitable regulated power supply, then you can consider using the 5V voltage regulator too!
