t0pToner - LED Two Tone Effect

NOTE: This is NOT one of those 'secret' projects i was talking about, This was something spurgurgle came up with and i just coded it and then we decided to brand it and release for other members.



Information:

Name: t0pToner
Author: t0pP8uZz
Current Version: 1.0
Current Revision: 1
Pic Used: PIC12F683
Description: Two tone LED effect.. SEE VIDEOS! Simply controls 2 OUTPUT pins depending on the state of 4 INPUT pins.

spurgurgle - was originally his idea, and credit for beta testing!

Current Features:
Simple two tone effect.. 2 output lines.. 4 inputs
Suggestions welcome..

Schematic/Diagram:
CG/CG2 Wireless Controller


Matrix Wireless Controller


PIN Information FOR CG/CG2 Controllers:
Basically theres 2 output lines. These are for lighting the LED's you install.

LINE1(PIN 7) Turns on if player 1 or player 4 led is on.
LINE2(PIN 6) Turns on if player 2 or player 3 led is on.

Connect player 1 led to pin 2. + side
Connect player 2 led to pin 3. + side
Connect player 3 led to pin 4. + side
Connect player 4 led to pin 5. + side

On the CG controllers every pin that connects to a ROL led needs a pull-down resistor. So connect 10k resistor to pin 2,3,4,5 then connect each one to GND or PIN 8.

SEE DIAGRAMS ABOVE

PIN Information FOR MATRIX Controllers:
LINE1(PIN 7) Turns on if player 1 or player 4 led is on.
LINE2(PIN 6) Turns on if player 2 or player 3 led is on.

Connect player 1 led to pin 2. - side
Connect player 2 led to pin 3. - side
Connect player 3 led to pin 4. - side
Connect player 4 led to pin 5. - side

On the matrix controller only PIN 4 needs a pull-up resistor. So make sure you connect a 10k resistor from pin1 to pin4.

With the matrix controller, NPN transistors are best to be used, You can try without them by connecting the LED directly to the outputs on the PIC, but if you want to run alot of LED's and good brightness then use the NPN's.

NOTE: If you followed the diagram for matrix above, And the LED's arent turning on, Please put a 500-5k Ohm resistor on the BASE(B) of the transistor to the OUTPUT pins. High resistors will result in a dimmer LED.

Real nice! As always, ingenious work T0p!

dont get me wrong here, but surely you could just use a simple logic gate ?

I must admit that a simple dual OR gates chip could do the trick here. Maybe there are some function I overlooked in the videos.

Yes you can, Things are slightly harder though when you need to CG and Matrix, And newb modders wouldnt know where to start, This is a simple mod with videos, diagrams and whatnot. Also what if someone didnt have the appropriate logic gates but has 12F683's (since 80% of mods here use them.) then its very simple.

the Matrix version also elimates having pull-up resistors on no more then 1 pin. :-)

Like i said, This was a simple mod we just wanted to get released.

i got to try this ... looks good
