I'm not sure about this but wondered if the attached simple circuit would work. You can slowly dim an LED with a cap in parallel to it (and its resistor) when you turn it off but the trick is to slowly turn the LED back on (slowly brightens). I thought some arrangement of cap, resistor and/or inductor would do the trick. I don't have a high value cap to experiment with. ![Eek! :eek: :eek:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Of course with caps, the charging and discharging curve is not linear.
I'm just trying to make this simple without having to use a PWM circuit but maybe I have to.![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Any suggestions???
