Hi all,
I want to make a delay off circuit, so when the switched 12v is removed the circuit will stay live for around 15 minutes. Can you please look at the circuit below and tell me whether it is gobbledegook or it will actually work.
This is more a joint automotive and general electronics project as it will be used on a microcontroller in my car, but I thought it would be more suited here.
From my limited knowledge, I have hopefully put together a working NE555 timer circuit from designs I have found on the net. There is a permanent 12v input and a switched 12v input. When the switched input is active it switches Q1 and brings pin 2 low, the 555 does its magic and outputs 12v to pin 3 and switches Q2 to complete the circuit and activate the solid state relay. When the switched 12v supply is removed the circuit will stay active for around 15 minutes then turn off.
Please see the circuit below.
Thanks,
Mike.
