Darkroom timer using PIC16F84A - Yet another darkroom timer using a PIC 16F84A 4 mhz.  I tried to design a timer that would do everything it needed to do but with the smallest number of pieces and simplest mode of operation.  It only needs the PIC, a four digit LED display, one other IC, a resistor network, one pushbutton switch and a capacitor.  It can run on batteries if you use a solid state relay to turn the exposure light on and off thereby adding a minimum of parts to make a fully functional darkroom timer.  A simple regulator would add only a few extra parts and allow the use of a "wall-wart" for power __ Designed by Lloyd Gordon
