Two Stage Sequential Timer - del90004
This is an example of a cascaded or sequential timer, here two CD4541
are forming a two stage timer. You can add more in a chain, but better
to use a microprocessor or Microcontroller for such a purpose. But make
sure EMI-RFI immunity is high for these circuits or wrong resets and
sets can make a machine like an Oven or Environment Chamber malfunction
and even ruin the job.
U5B a flip-flop is used for the control switches Start and Stop to
prime or shutdown the sequential cycle. The first timer U2 sets the
flip-flop or register U5A after a period T1, this register turns the
relay on thru Q3. The second timer U4 which was triggered by the first
will reset the U5A after time period T2, U5A then shuts down relay. U5A
also then resets entire process thru U3C and U3D.
