I am using the NE555. I'll try using a transistor to bump the current up a bit and use a 12V power source. Would any NPN BJT work, or is there a specific one that would be more suitable for this application?
Hmmm, I'm actually not sure what the specs on the relay are. There is no writing on it, but I have a feeling it might be an automotive relay. Should I try to power the circuit using 12 volts then (instead of 6)?
I'll try to add the 100uf cap to the circuit and I'll let you know what happens...
Hey guys,
Not sure if this is the correct section for this, but feel free to move it if it's not.
So, I'm having a little trouble with controlling a relay using a 555 timer connected in monostable (one-shot) mode. Basically, I have everything hooked up just like in the schematic below, except...
Hi everyone, my name is Adam, and I've been lurking around the forum for a while, but just recently registered. I'm looking forward to learning some new things!
