Long delay

Oct 24, 2007 1 Replies

Hi all



I wish to make a device with 89C2051 where I have to start a motor and atop it after 30, 60, 120 or 180 minutes based on switch selection.



I have never seen any application that demands such a long interval.



What is the best way to achieve these intervals and what are the pitfalls in making the controller execute such a feat?



Any help will be greatly appreciated.



TIA

Well, I would add a real time clock to it and make it easy. Something like a DS1307.
