Can I convert a toggle switch to momentary switch using a transistor and capacitor?


After searching online for an answer to how to convert a toggle switch to a momentary switch I found the circuit below. I've simulated it and it works in CircuitLab.

I'd like to do the same thing using a transistor instead of a relay but so far I haven't been able to make it work in CircuitLab. Can I convert a toggle switch to momentary switch using a transistor and capacitor?



Answer



I believe something like this would work for you:




You will have to play around with the cap and resistor values in order to achieve your desired timing and intensity for the lamp.

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
