Baby Paws

 I have received some info from Ian Bird on his "Baby Paws (pause)" timer circuit...
 
"In brief: This small, 2 ¼” by 1” circuit board is based on a 555 timer chip and a resistor/capacitor combination. It can output a positive (+ve) signal and provide a switched ground for a short time period after being triggered. The trigger can be either a +ve feed or a ground connection. The delay is adjustable using a small screwdriver between milliseconds to more than 10 seconds. Changing two components can make this delay a lot longer, minutes or even hours or days.
 
Specs
Ø Operates using a voltage of between 5 and 15 volts.
Ø Polarity protection (optional).
Ø Facility for onboard voltage regulator (optional).
Ø Trigger from either a +ve voltage or ground.
Ø Will output a +ve signal (max 100ma) on triggering.
Ø Will supply a ground (max 100ma) on triggering.
Ø Delay adjustable from almost nothing to 10 seconds or more."
 
Ian's site will be up in the future detailing this and his other projects.
