How to Make a Simple Delay Timer Circuit Using Capacitor and Transistor?

[@DesertVox]

Simple circuits like this are good for beginners to easily understand where the current is going in the circuit, and what the role of the different resistors and capacitors are.

[@larrybud]

For the new guys in town: If you're going to replace the transistor with something, such as a 2n2222 or 2n3904, be sure to check the pinouts. BC547 is CBE while 2222/3904 is EBC

thank you , i like how understadable you make it , bless be opon you .

[@eeapplications]

You are so welcome

[@notmuchwear]

This is such a well explained circuit and beautifully presented in a step-by-step fashion. Well done and good on you for teaching this beautiful art form in a simplified fashion.

[@Hamid-az]

Very clear my friend❤

[@rajiWickramanayake-yo5qo]

Good explain

[@dhrubavideos]

Awesome, i am feeling like an engineer

[@SNSISNSJISEJSJS]

I LOVED IT LOVE THE EVERY Single BIT of the video pls PLSSSSS make a video about this.
Transistor timer delay OFF circuit
This was ON circuit can you show OFF pls 🙏 :)
Btw I enjoyed so much the video

[@uttukruichy4994]

thanks bro

[@ioduremetallique]

the button will quickly be out of service. (Because of the current peak when charging the capacitor)

[@KarlOnSea]

Agreed - with a similar set up powered by three AAA batteries, I measured the peak current at over 5A as the capacitor charges. So I've just designed a circuit with a MOSFET to charge the capacitor, and then the BJT to switch on the LED.

[@larrybud]

@@KarlOnSea Just put a resistor in series between the button an the + on the cap.

[@davidbarrett7424]

Would a suitable current limiting resistor in series with the switch fix it?

[@allanpatterson7653]

That first contact the Capacitor will discharge on its contacts max amperage. It is like hammering it.

[@Kiranle150]

What software is used to draw the circuit?

[@zoranpetrovski3051]

Awesome

[@eeapplications]

Thank you so much ☺️

Good work

[@Teenagegoogoomuk]

Got a vid for a one shot after delay? need to time out then cycle one time after power up cycle?
Basically bypassing a switch for one cycle ?

[@yasithagayan]

Hello. Do you know car start up scan LED strip. It normal function is when start the engine LED strip is turning on then automatic LED stip and stay turn on untill turn off the engine. Can we use this methode turn off LED strip automatically in few seconds after turning on the engine?

[@SNSISNSJISEJSJS]

Nice also what's the simulation software name ?

[@alnea]

Proteus

[@hobbit4636]

How do you change the circuit to become a normally off to a normally on using a single pole switch?

[@lokeshkarthikd5386]

hi i am trying to make a similar circuit but the LED lights up only after the capacitor has reached full charge.
so how should I modify this circuit to achieve that?

[@igorfomenko9189]

Hi, what to do if I need a few milliseconds delay?

[@DrN007]

I want a timer that acts the other way around: you toggle a switch and 2s later (if the switch is still on) the lamp turns on and stays on forever (even if the switch goes off).

[@jumbo999614]

Instead of your finger on the push button, can we get output from other circuit as input to this delay circuit?

[@DesertVox]

I guess using another transistor like the BC547 to replace the push button.

[@DigiLab360]

Yes, you can use the output of a microcontroller for example.

[@sergiotricarico]

Perhaps an optocoupler (given that are two circuits), just be sure that it will handle the current

[@tommoore4071]

An R/C timer with a transistor latch circuit could delay turn on and hold it.

[@2manyguitarz]

great lesson.... now....can we modify this so the LED is replaced with a enough juice to turn on relay, for 10sec THEN, turn off, and AUTOMATICaLY REPEAT EVERY HOUR?// until power is disonnected?/ my water fall evaporates considerably when its hot i want to filk it ever hr till night ⛲🍺👍

[@robertpoynton9923]

What if I wanted to charge a capacitor and have it discharge once it gets to 9 volts automatically?

[@stark_energy]

You can use 555 IC and voltage divider.

[@RichmondNyamalor-yh4ch]

Can you please teach how a 555 timer ic works

[@Redoxifiedguy]

which is the software he used for showing circuit demo????????????????????/🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@thesidd19]

Proteus

[@ZephyrsFacts]

What happen if you put the resistor and led to the emitter

[@Khadjs1804]

How many microfarad for like 5 seconds only? TIA

[@jamsheenav1014]

Can you make a circuit diagram of lighting led for 5 second on open circuit
Please 🙏🙏🙏

[@paramjitsingh137]

Good for basic demo but not perfect timing

[@neonblowfish]

Shorting the power supply to common through the cap is a bad idea. You need to current limit that cap.

[@khaozelectrichead]

I didnt know that current flowed through a cap in dc. I guess it could fail with age.

[@Dad-ij2qy]

Why ? It's a capacitor, not an LED. As long as you don't apply more volts than the capacitor is rated for, it will be okay.

Como calcular o tempo?

This is amateur electronics, not real engineering. Leave that to the professionals.

this is so irrelevant 😂
