>> Can I suggest you forget the 555s and simplify the thing completely? >Use one measuring circuit (such as a 555 or gate-logic RC timer) and I'm also want to build a R/C transmitter. The hard part for me is the RF stage. Can someone help me in this (40MHz). But, if you plan to use a PIC in your design why not use a PIC with A/D converter ? Much sipmlier design and programming needed.
