To achieve the the
greatest degree of realism, many modeling projects desire lighting effects
that go well beyond simple static lighting. Many require effects that are quite dynamic, producing animated behavior to mimic
a wide variety of devices.
Below are our products
specifically designed for LEDs that we've developed
to support a wide range of dynamic lighting effects. We hope you find them
innovative.
Due to the
wide variety of modeling scales, LEDs for use with
these products are sold
separately and can be found by clicking on the
Lighting Products link at the left side of this page.
Star Trek TOS Starships Lighting Kit for 1:1500 scale & larger models
The
NK032 Lighting Kit consists of two circuits configured to produce lighting
effects for Star Trek TOS (The
Original Series) Starships. The primary (larger) circuit is programmed to
realistically simulate the
Navigation lights, 2 outputs for white LEDs for lighting the
Bridge/Sensory/Engineering Hull/Saucer section, an orange LED for the
Impulse Engine, 6 LED outputs for the 2 Warp Nacelles, and a single white
LED output for the Starship's
I,D. lighting. These outputs are timed to sequentially turn on. Click on
Connecting in the More Info table above
for details.
The secondary circuit (also
a separate product shown below) is for Phaser & Photon Torpedo control.

Starships of The Original Series (TOS), Photon Torpedo initialization (red LED) and firing sequence (white LED), and
(blue LED) Phaser firing. There are separate input controls to fire each weapon.

navigation marker lights of Star Trek®
Enterprise version
NCC1701A.
Additionally, their are

Enterprise NX-01 Navigation Lights Simulator
This module is programmed to
realistically simulate the port & starboard navigation marker lights
of Star Trek® Enterprise version NX-01 (the original,
Commissioned in 2151 (Stardate -172000). It is configured to
drive 3 series pairs of red & green LEDs with two pairs blinking
(saucer top & bottom) at the correct rate, and one pair on
continuously (warp nacelles).

Photon Torpedo Simulator
The N8091 Simulator is programmed to realistically
simulate the visual effects of the Star Trek® Photon Torpedo
initialization and firing sequence like that seen on the starship
Enterprise. The module can be setup for manual firing only, manual
firing with auto-repeat option, or auto-repeat only. The N8091B
has the added "throw" optionThe NLD version
uses our low-voltage 3.3-volt simulator.

Enterprise NCC1701A Phaser
The N8095
is designed to simulate the
approx. 4-second burst of light (blue LED) as seen when firing a phaser
cannon
on-board the early NCC-1701A Star trek Enterprise.
As with the N8103 Booster Boards above, these Super Boosters come in 3 flavors: N8103A-1 to support a single output Simulator, N8103A-2 for 2 output Simulators, and N8103A-3 for 3-output Simulators. A Simulator is easily be piggybacked on a Booster Board (connecting wire included) and share a common power input for both.
However, there are many modeling situations where a
particular lighting effect may be desirable if it can be reproduced
on many LEDs (series or parallel groups) or LEDs that exceed the
25mA or 5-volts DC. This is where our Booster Boards shine (forgive
the pun). At just 0.8" x 1.50", these small boards increase a
simulator's output up to times a Simulator's output and a DC voltage
range of 9-18 VDC. This greatly expands the versatility of many of our
Simulator products, especially where LEDs can be wired in series groups!
Our Simulator boards can also be programmed to perform as timer modules to
turn on and off outputs in timing ranges from seconds (or even
milli-seconds) to hours. When coupled with these Super Boosters a vary wide
range of control and automation can be performed.
Standard voltage
operating range for the Super Booster Board is 6 to 18 volts DC. This
voltage range is determined by the on-board voltage regulator mounted on our
Simulator boards
The Boosters come in 3
flavors: N8103-1 to support a single output Simulator (i.e., N8032
Beacon), N8103-2 for 2 output Simulators (i.e., N8038 Early-era
Alternating Flasher), and N8103-3 for 3-output Simulators (i.e., N8043
Universal Strobe). A Simulator is easily be piggybacked on a Booster
Board (connecting wire included) and share a common power input for
both.
This is the big brother of our
Simulator Booster Boards. It is exactly the same size (0.8"
x 1.50") as our N8103 product above, but has a much larger
final-stage power transistor for the output. This allows a much
wider range of control of many of our newer products like multiple
sound modules or much larger groups of LEDs. It also allows driving
much higher current LEDs for special lighting situations.
The tiny size of our Miniature Simulator modules above make them
extremely versatile for all modeling scales. However, this size also limits
output driving capability to 25mA at 5-volts DC per output channel. This is
sufficient to support a very wide range of lighting effects.

At just 3/4" square, this product series includes a
state-of-the-art current source which provides a constant 20 ma for LEDs
connected to the module. This means any color 20 ma LED can be connected
without the need for external current limiting resistors,
multiple LEDs can be connected in series (requires a power source of
sufficient voltage) and different colors of LEDs can be combined in the
same series. All will operate at 20 ma.
For certain applications it may be desirable to
have the LED (or series string) connected to operate at less than full
brightness. For this purpose, solder pads are included on the back of the
module for placement of resistors to adjust of current source output.
Input
voltage range 6-16 VDC. Extra power wires included.

Machine Gun Simulator
This simulator generates a rapid stream of pulses alternating
between 2 connected LEDs whenever the input pin is grounded. The timing and
duration of these pulses mimics the appearance of automatic weapons fire
like that of Star Wars® X-wing fighters. The N8060A version of this module is
configured
for 4 LEDs
alternating between pairs to simulate 4 guns firing.

High-current Smoke Generator Controller & Timer
The N8103B
Smoke Generator Controller/Timer is essentially a very high current
switching circuit combined with one of our N8050 single output Simulators
programmed as a timing circuit. The timer is mounted on the Current Control main board. The heart of the Current control board is a N-Channel
HEXFET Power MOSFET that can act as a power switch to easily control up to
16 Amps of 12-volts DC. Note: Actual power
switched is based on power supply (not included) that is connected to the
N8103B.
