Working Principle
This project turns on the LEDs connected to port 1 of the microcontroller in sequence, resulting in chasing LEDs effect. The data is displayed with a one-second delay between each output pattern. The following figure shows the output pattern of LEDs. (There are only 8LEDs).
Components
- AT89C2051 microcontroller
- Capacitors: 10uF, 30pF, 30pF.
- Resistors: R2=100O…..(8) and one 8.2KO
- Crystal oscillator: 12MHz
- LEDs: 8
Circuit diagram
The following figure shows the circuit diagram of LED chasing project. For better appearance, you can also arrange these LEDs in circular or any geometrical shape with different colors for colorful output.

Program description
The program is required to load a 1 into the top (or bottom) bit of a variable and then shift the data right (or left) by one digit and display on the LEDs. A delay is required between each out to see the effect of chasing.
