The badge consists of eight LEDs arranged in the shape of a heart. One LED is lit at a time and this 'chases' round the shape. It would be easy to adapt this project to create other shapes with the eight LEDs. This project uses a 555 astable circuit to provide the clock pulses for the 4017 counter.
Parts Required
resistors: 2.2k, 47k, 270 ×8
capacitors: 0.1µF, 1µF 16V radial

safety pin to attach badge
ribbon cable 9-way about 1 metre (to connect badge to main circuit)
stripboard: 16 rows × 19 holes for circuit, 10 rows × 9 holes for badge
