How about using a separate power supply for the LEDs and some optoisolators between your processor and the LEDs. That way only the LEDs, and maybe some optos can get fried. I worked on some devices that were designed to take a hit from a patient being defrillated and keep on tick

They are tools for simplifying combinational logic. You started out with a set of equations describing what you wanted to build. And the tools helped you to turn the simultaneous equations into a solution. I think matrix tools were part of that but we are going WAY WAY back into

Hi Graham, Personally, I beg to differ on the distance. CAN has now been recognised for use in aviation and on large aircraft it is going to be some cable distance from some nodes. I have also successfully in the past run on an ROV umbilical of 1500m with albeit a slower bus rate

Hi Chuck, CAN bus is a great way to go with your project. Once you get over the hurdle of figuring out how the controller works then you won't go back to using the likes of RS485 again. :o) If you want to avoid having a microcontroller at your signal ends you could consider the M
