Good morning,
Please can you help; excuse my ignorance, but I know very little of electronics?
I would like to obtain a battery operated (AAA type or similar) module that turns the power on for roughly 3 seconds then off for a further 3 seconds and repeats this indefinitely. From browsing the internet it seems that I may need something called an astable 555 timer?!?!
Additionally, the complete module must be as small and simple as is possible, ideally not more than 10mm in width and height (length is not so critical, i.e. ideal shape is long and thin). Also, I guess only 2 batteries would fit in my application, so 3v would have to suffice.
Is it possible that this can be made? If any one can do so I'll gladly pay them to provide a couple! Otherwise, can anyone tell me what components I would need to try myself.
Many thanks in advance for your time and any help you can provide, Richard
