This is exactly the right list. How high a voltage for how long (and
how often) and at what current?<br>

<div>Hi- </div>
<div>I'm a long-time lurker on this email, but I'm not active.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It's been many, many years since I did Industrial
engineering at NC State, and I've mostly been doing data
communications and cyber security since then. In other
words.... I'm no longer hands on. I don't even know how to
solder any more.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>sigh. This is embarrassing..</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Now I have a need to design a build a simple analog circuit
for a hobby of mine, and I'm getting stumped. I'm wondering
if someone has some time to give me a few pointers and/or help
me with the design.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The battery-powered circuit will be very simple. I need to
flash an LED a couple of times per second (I got that working
with a 555 timer), then I need to send beeps to a little piezo
speaker (I'm still working on that), and finally, I need to
pulse a high-voltage/low-current DC signal about twice per
second. I'm thinking of using a max1771 DC-DC converter for
that. ...and I'm in over my head.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I won't be able to make it to the November meeting, but
would it be possible to get someone to spare an hour some
other evening to discuss this?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Anyone want to volunteer to help a life-long learner?</div>
<div><br>

<div>Here is an email account I don't use very much, but I'll be
checking it:</div>
