The switch shut-off time delay circuit consists of a timer, optocouplers, a bridge SCR, and an SCR AC switch. When the control button is released, it allows the motor or other AC power to remain active for one hour. Upon pressing the button, the voltage at pin 2 is stepped down to Ucc/3. The output at pin 3 increases, causing the LED to illuminate.
The switch shut-off time delay circuit is designed to control the duration for which an AC load remains energized after a control button is released. The core components include a timer IC that governs the time delay, optocouplers for isolation and signal transfer, and a bridge SCR configuration that facilitates the control of AC loads.
When the control button is pressed, the circuit is powered, and the timer begins its countdown. The voltage at pin 2 is reduced to one-third of the supply voltage (Ucc/3), which is essential for the operation of the timer. As the timer counts down, the output at pin 3 transitions from a low to a high state, which activates the LED indicator, providing visual feedback that the circuit is operating.
The optocouplers serve to isolate the control logic from the high-voltage AC side, ensuring safety and preventing damage to sensitive components. The bridge SCR is employed to handle the AC switching, allowing for the control of high-power loads without mechanical switches. This arrangement not only enhances durability but also minimizes wear and tear on components.
Once the timer completes its countdown, the output at pin 3 will drop, turning off the LED and deactivating the SCR, which in turn cuts off the AC power to the load. This design is particularly useful in applications where a delayed shut-off is required, such as in motor control, lighting systems, or other automated processes where a temporary delay is beneficial. The entire circuit can be powered from a standard AC source, and with appropriate component selection, it can be tailored for various load requirements and time delays.The switch shut off time delay circuit is shown as below.
