Hi all.
I just joined to hopefully get some help and ideas. I'm pretty new to electronics, and have no formel training or education. Just like to have some fun building simple robot bugs, etc..
My question:
Using a normal transistor switch (like the one from a bit down this page:
http://www.kpsec.freeuk.com/trancirc.htm), can I get the relay to stay on for say 10sec, then "halt". It was easy when I used a PICmicro controlling the base, but I'd like to use as "simple" a design as usual. Hopefully using only transistors/caps/res's, but I guess a 555 timer is a viable solution..
PS! The relay is this one:
Sorry for what is probably an insanely stupid/easy question, but I've been searching and trying, but still nowhere closer to an answer.
Sincerely,
Geir
