his timer circuit can be used to switch OFF a particular device after around 35
minutes. The circuit can be used to switch OFF devices like radio, TV, fan,
pump etc after a preset time of 35 minutes. Such a circuit can surely save a lot
of power.







The circuit is based on quad 2 input CMOS IC 4011 (U1).The resistor
R1 and capacitor C1 produces the required long time delay. When
pushbutton switch S2 is pressed, capacitor C1 discharges and input
of the four NAND gates are pulled to zero. The four shorted outputs
of U1 go high and activate the transistor Q1 to drive the relay. The
appliance connected via the relay is switched ON. When S2 is
released the C1 starts charging and when the voltage at its positive
pin becomes equal to the supply voltage the outputs of U1
becomes zero and the transistor is switched OFF. This makes the
relay deactivated and the appliance connected via the relay is
turned OFF. The timer can be made to stop when required by
pressing switch S1.



Notes.

* Assemble the circuit on a good quality PCB or common board.
* The circuit can be powered from a 9V PP3 battery or 12V DC
power supply.
* The time delay can be varied by varying the values of C1&R1.
* The push button switch S2 is for starting the timer and S1 for
stopping the time.
* The appliance can be connected via contacts N1 & N2 of the relay
RL1.
* The IC U1 is 2 input quad NAND gate 4011.
Description:
These two circuits are multi-range timers offering periods of up to 24 hours and beyond. Both are
essentially the same. The main difference is that when the time runs out, Version 1 energizes the
relay and Version 2 de-energizes it. The first uses less power while the timer is running; and the
second uses less power after the timer stops. Pick the one that best suits your application.

Notes:
The Cmos 4060 is a 14 bit binary counter with a built in oscillator. The oscillator consists of the two
inverters connected to Pins 9, 10 & 11; and its frequency is set by R3, R4 & C3.The green Led
flashes while the oscillator is running: and the C counts the number of oscillations. Although it's a 14
bit counter, not all of the bits are accessible. Those that can be reached are shown on the drawing.
By adjusting the frequency of the oscillator you can set the length of time it takes for any given output
to go high. This output then switches the transistor; which in turn operates the relay. At the same time,
D1 stops the count by disabling the oscillator. deally C3 should be non-polarized; but a regular
electrolytic will work, provided it doesn't leak too badly in the reverse direction. Alternatively, you can
simulate a non-polarized 10uF capacitor by connecting two 22uF capacitors back to back (as shown).
Using "Trial and Error" to set a long time period would be very tedious. A better solution is to use the
Setup tables provided; and calculate the time required for Pin 7 to go high. The Setup tables on both
schematics are interchangeable. They're just two different ways of expressing the same equation.
For example, if you want a period of 9 Hours, the Range table shows that you can use the output at
Pin 2. You need Pin 2 to go high after 9 x 60 x 60 = 32 400 seconds. The Setup table tells you to
divide this by 512; giving about 63 seconds. Adjust R4 so that the Yellow LED lights 63 seconds after
power is applied. This will give an output at Pin 2 after about 9 Hours.
The Support Material for the timers includes a detailed circuit description - parts lists - a step-by-step
guide to construction - and more. A suitable Veroboard layout for each version is shown below:

The timer was designed for a 12-volt supply. However, provided a suitable relay is used, the circuit
will work at anything from 5 to 15-volts. Applying power starts the timer. t can be reset at any time by
a brief interruption of the power supply. The reset button is optional; but it should NOT be used during
setup. The time it takes for the Yellow LED to light MUST be measured from the moment power is
applied. Although R1, R2 and the two LEDs help with the setup, they are not necessary to the
operation of the timer. f you want to reduce the power consumption, disconnect them once you've
completed the setup. f you need a longer period than 24-hours, increase the value of C3.
This timer was designed for people wanting to get tanned but at the same time wishing to avoid an
excessive exposure to sunlight. A Rotary Switch sets the timer according to six classified Photo-types
(see table). A Photo resistor extends the preset time value according to sunlight brightness (see table).
When preset time ends, the beeper emits an intermittent signal and, to stop it, a complete switch-off of
the circuit via SW2 is necessary.
