Synopsis

The nature of time is barely understood, yet we can measure it with greater precision than any other physical quantity. This book outlines the ways in which electronics is applied to the measurement of time. The theory is backed by a wide range of practical constructional projects, with detailed circuit diagrams and full explanations of how they work, how to build them, and how to check them for correct operation. There are projects here for the beginner as well as for the more advanced constructor, covering many fields of interest, including basic time-keeping, laboratory data recording,high-precision timing, sports and games, music, and many other applications in and around the home. All the circuits can be powered by battery, making them safe to build can to use. Several have been designed specially as low-cost projects, ideal for the beginner and younger enthusiast. The circuits make use of all the more commonly available timing ICs, so that this book also acts as a reference to practical timing techniques. Many of the circuits are presented so that they can be readily modified to extend their usefulness.

Whatever your timing requirements, you are likely to find that these projects can be used directly or adapted simply for your use.
