Making a timer that is used for circuit training or boxing training etc. Here is the cycle I am looking for. This does not need any input, but to reset the timer to the beginning. its a simple project why not making it simpler by using a microcontroller you will not invest much take the pic12f635 for example, costs less than 2$ on top of that a few analog components that you are going buy anyways.

You`ve got 7 equal intervals in total; use a 30-second 555 astable clocking a 4017, taking outputs 1-5, 6, 7, reset after the full cycle. For the short buzz, the 4017 output to the light switcher also (through steering diodes) starts a second 555 monostable connected to the buzzer. The circuit needed is one which gives a short (timed) buzz even if the operating switch/button is held closed, so the start of the 30 seconds for which the lamp is lit sets it going for, say, only 1 second or less. That is what I thought. Thanks again. Here is the first attempt at the circuit without the buzzer. I used the divide by 10 for the first 5 counts to eliminate using diodes. Please be kind, this is first attempt. I am not EE I just play one on TV. Note: The schematic program i used could not jump over the connection at pin 8. Pin 6 and reset do not connect to pin 8. This is a crude attempt to jump over the connection. cpemma, you mentioned steering diodes. I think I know what you are talking about, but could I use the LED`s as steering diodes, or is the bias reversed How would they be connected cpemma, you mentioned steering diodes. I think I know what you are talking about, but could I use the LED`s as steering diodes, or is the bias reversed How would they be connected On the Bill Bowden traffic lights circuit I linked, the 1N914 diodes are used to connect a block of 4017 outputs together so if any one of them is `high` that light is...
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
