Lighting device 1. Introduction 2. Printed circuit board 3. Microcontroller software 4. Computer software		Lighting device 1. Introduction To make the characterization of our biological system we develop a lighting device which can be controlled from a computer. The goal of this device is to create red and infrared pulses of which period and duration are fixed by the user in a computer interface. The link between computer and the microcontroller is carrying through the serial port.

		2. Printed circuit board We design the printed circuit board with Kicad a free PCB design tool. Here you can download the files of the circuit: The following picture explains the different components used:

		3. Microcontroller software The microcontroller used is the Microchip pic 18F452 which is easily programmable in C language with MPLAB combined with C18 compiler. Here you can download the hex file of the program: And here are the source files of the soft:

		4. Computer software We develop the computer software in Visual C++. The following picture illustrates the software interface: Here you can download the software: And here are the sources files:
