Resistor Placement
If the final device is to be battery powered then @microMerlin 's suggestion of a mosfet driver is a good one. A mosfet (it needs to have a logic level gate so a 5V micro can drive it) connected to...
View ArticleFritzing now crashes on my Pi (running Raspbian O/S)
There are lots of possible failure modes, including flaky hardware (such as memory errors). I'm assuming you are booting from an SD card so it too is a candidate if it got some bits corrupted that...

You would be best to upload the Fritzing sketch the pcb was made from and then one of us could have a look to see what (if anything) is wrong. You could (and should before sending boards for...

You would need to post the code with the for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++) removed for us to do much. You do also need to remove the { and } if you didn't. For instance I think this should blink 1 led if...

Thanks, would you also need the third party parts I'm using? I did load the project into a Gerber viewer and the issue does exist there.

Thank you very much, I will have to test that code. First person to explain that to me. Couldn't get it across to people on the arduino forum. I can assign this to a push button now can't I?. Then it...

Can't get Arduino part On Top Of an Image (logo)!
Hello, I got stuck in a problem, that I no idea how to solve. Maybe you guys can help I want to place an Arduino UNO Rev 3 on top of a png img I uploaded using the logo part trick (a print screen...

Once you can get the shift register to light the leds you should do ok. One bit in the led word will light the red led another bit (possibly in a different led variable if it is on a different shift...

Thank you I will try the code, I tried to use a couple of libraries to help me make it easier. Like shifty. But it just lit up every LED up, with shifty it allows you to write digital inputs like you...

The first thing I see is that on Fritzing 0.93b on Win with the latest parts updates, is that there are 3 outdated parts that it wants to update. Letting it update them (it actually updated 13 not 3...

Assuming bit 1 is the red led and bit 2 is the green led and a 1 turns on the led, then this should do what you want. void setup(){leds = 0; /* set the leds initially all off */pinMode(latchPin,...

You have too many "}"s. At the end of void loop() where there is }} delete the last one and it should work. The { and } need to be balanced and with the extra one it is not and it ends the program...

Thank you that helped, also that has sorted the error. But when I flashed it to the arduino it lit every led one by one. Then that was it, nothing is lit. I don't get it, this is the problem I have...

Since the code looks correct I expect you have one or more of the pins from the arduino to the shift register wired wrong. Since the leds all light in sequence they are likely wired correctly as is...

I unlocked the part, and raised to front - right-click on part - and then lowered to back. Seams to be a glitch in FZ where you have to go the opposite way before going to where you want.

I think you got the wrong thread, from the context I think this is the fix for the arduino that won't move to the front which is another thread Peter
