DIY electronics

Nowadays, homemade electronic products on microcontrollers are trendy. I am even more interested in assembling different devices with simple logic circuits. Their operating principle is more visual, which gives me aesthetic pleasure. Today we are going to show you four simple devices. Three of them are based on flip-flops, and the fourth one, which we will start with, could use a flip-flop.

Many guitarists consider the DS-1 to be the worst-sounding guitar pedal. Could this 1978 Roland design be a failure and is now hopelessly outdated? We can get a good sound out of this classic pedal, too. For that, we'll put it, listen to it, and start by studying the circuitry.

DIY voltage-boosting LED driver How is it assembled? How do you convert an existing one to suit your needs?

Do you want dynamic LED turn signals for your bicycle? Do you also want a dynamic brake light? (in part two) Or maybe you want an emergency signal? (in part two) And all that WITHOUT a microcontroller? (only logic circuits)
