I'm working on a project where there will be an RF receiver running continuously and powered by a battery. To extend battery life I want to power the receiver with a timer, so the receiver will be powered for perhaps .25 seconds. If the receiver catches a signal then the receiver will remain powered until the signal is gone, but if it does not catch a signal then it will power off for .75 seconds. Can someone point me to a timer circuit that uses all off-the-shelf parts that will fill this need? I'm hoping to avoid the complexity of adding a processor and writing code and I'm hoping there are some off the shelf parts that can accomplish this. Thanks in advance!
