Chip (DIP8) Module B11 for 5 leds

DIP-8 microchip with DC-Car encapsulation.

The B11 module performs 5 flashes with different flashing speeds, 2 of them are double flashes.

This module is used, for example, for aircraft position signals:

• Strobe light on the outer wings (white double flash)
• Independent Flasher # 1 and # 2 (white single flash)
• Tail strobe light (white simple flash)
• Beacon light in the middle of the upper and lower fuselage (red simple flash)

But of course, it can also be used for any other application.

The operating voltage is between 3'6 and 5 volts, each output supports 20 mA. The resistance values of each LED are between 330 ohms and 470 ohms, depending on the desired brightness.

The anodes (positive poles) of all LEDs are connected between each other and also connected to the output + of the DC-Car decoder voltage transformer, or any other alternative power supply.

Control of the module operation is done by feeding it directly with any light output without series resistance of the DC-Car decoder (in this example flash light 4 programmed as continuous output), or directly by a negative signal, so this module can also be installed in vehicles without digital decoder.
