The circuit was conventionally designed with eight LED audio level meter made out of two low power quad op-amps which utilizes LM324. Volume Unit – an entity equal to a decibel for expressing the ...
It used to be a must-have on any hi-fi, a pair of moving coil meters or LED bar graphs, the VU meter. Your 1980s boombox would have had them, for example. VU, for “Volume Units”, is a measure of audio ...
The project is based on LM3915/LM3916 to produce a VU meter with the level indication using 10-segment LED bar graph. The VU meter circuit was built on a breadboard with a few components used such as ...
The LM3914 LED bar graph driver was an amazing chip back in the day. Along with the LM3915, its logarithmic cousin, these chips gave a modern look to projects, allowing dancing LEDs to stand in for a ...
