Knight Rider LED Circuit

Step 1: Materials

Materials:                                             QTY:

8.2 KΩ....................................................1
3.3 kΩ Resistor.....................................1      
Resistor 1 k ohm 0805........................ 6
1N4148 Diode......................................10
LED..........................................................6
10uF SMD Cap......................................1
0.01 uF C.................................................1
555 Timer................................................1
100.00 kΩ R............................................1
10KΩ Resistor SMD..............................1
4017.........................................................1
Extra wire (optional, but suggested)
Breadboard (optional)                      

Step 2: The 555

For this step, you will need your 555 Timer, 0.01 uF C, 3.3 kΩ Resistor, and 10uF SMD Cap. Wire the components up as shown. Keep in mind, the very top wire is positive, and the bottom wire is negative. Pins 8 and 4, and your  3.3 kΩ resistor go straight to positive, and pin 1 goes straight to negative. Pin 5 goes to a 0.01 uF and then to negative. Pin 7 comes in directly after the 3.3 kΩ resistor. I forgot to put it in this schematic, but there is an 8.2 kΩ resistor right after pin 7 and right before pins 2 and 6.
