Hello
I am creating a light gate circuit. Bascially I now have one signal that will pulse high and low. I intend to use this signal to enable / disable a 555 timer.
I wish to use the timer as a clock to count how long the signal is on for. How do I do this?
WHat do I connect the output of the timer circuit to in order to have it displayed on a clock to show the time in seconds/ milliseconds.
Also is the accuracy of the 555 controlled by the RC circuit?
