The trouble is that he only needs the delay in the turn-on direction, it will need to turn off immediately. The usual way to do this is with an AND gate which has a very short RC time constant between the inputs. The input directly connected to the control signal turns the output off immediately, and the RC delay on the other input provides the delay that stops both inputs going to the true state simultaneously, and hence the output is delayed slightly before going true. -- http://www.piclist.com hint: PICList Posts must start with ONE topic: [PIC]:,[SX]:,[AVR]: ->uP ONLY!
