Hello all, I'm new to this site so I hope I posted into the correct forum.
I've been trying to locate a sample design that would allow me the following function: Push a button and immediately send an "on" pulse...if I continue to hold down the button for another full second, start sending pulses at about 2/3 times per second until I release the button.
This kind of functionality is common on appliances, such as holding the Up/Down Channel buttons on a TV remote, or to quickly set a digital clock.
I get the feeling the ubiquitous 555 would be used in this scenario, but I've just too many gaps in my knowledge. Thank you!
