The circuit operated from a single 1 5v cell but could also operate from a single 1 2v rechargeable cell.
1 5 v led flasher circuit.
This is my first instructable.
Mimics the now discontinued lm3909 ic.
I am a doctor now but i still love building and exploring circuits and learning how stuff works.
Two segments of a 74hc04 hex inverter are utilized as a squarewave oscillator that builds up the glimmer rate while a third segment is utilized as a cushion that charges the capacitor in arrangement with a 470 ohm resistor while the support yield is at 1 5 volts.
The led d should be preferably of the red type.

Below is the circuit diagram of an lm3909 led flasher taken from an out of print electronics magazine.
I had been tinkering with electronics since my childhood.
Leds dont light up in 1 5v usually if connected direc.
When about 15 years ago making the led flasher easy.
I built this circuit on a tiny pcb many years ago.
Some 1 5 v led flasher circuits are available on the internet and we like to present you four of them.
This is possible by achieving an average current draw of 35ua microamperes.
How the circuit works.
This is a low voltage led flasher or 1 5v led flasher circuit using bc556 and bc546 transistors.
Most linear integrated circuits are designed to operate with power supplies of 4 5 to 40v.
Practically no battery portable equipment is provided with indicator lights due to unacceptable power drain.
1 5v one battery led light flasher circuit diagram this will flash a led using a single 1 5v or 1 2v cell.
The circuit on the upper uses the popular lm3909 led flasher ic and requires only a timing capacitor and led.
This led flasher will blink continuously for 10 years on a single 1 5v aa alkaline cell.

And other electronic devices is 4 resistor and 3 capacitors only.
10 year led flasher.
The flasher circuits below operate on a single 1 5 volt battery.
The upper circuit shows utilizing a 100uf capacitor to twofold the battery voltage to get 3 volts for the led.
