I have an idea burning inside my head but cant find a suitable place to begin my project. Basically what I want to do is create a string of about 100-150 leds to make a design with 3 different modes. Flashing, Chasing, and a on/off mode.
I find myself having some difficulty creating a circuit and deciding which components to use in the process. I was advised by a friend to use a Shift Register, and by another friend to use a 555 Astable multivibrator along with a Monostable Multivibrator. Keep in mind my knowledge about circuitry is still in a beginner stage, but not so as to say I dont understand :D Any help would be much appreciated
