Hi Guys,
I am currently building an LED Chaser which I wish to run off a 14.5V Supply of the Car Battery. I have the code typed up, the LED's ready (with 620ohm resistors), just need to buy a 08M Chip and solder that into the circuit.
I have had a small hunt around but am wondering what voltages these chips work on? Will 14.5V be alright? Also when the PICAXE chip outputs high will it output 14.5V or something less? Also I have seen some talk of voltage regulators somewhere in the forum. Do I need to do this too?
Cheers,
Gareth
