Abstract

Eight Applications Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) for use in stand-alone end products and other devices requiring a 24 hour memory. They have a real-time clock as well as memory that stores On and Off Switch closures with the ability to repeat them. They also have power management to allow them to operate by receiving their power through the load they are switching. They also have LED drivers to indicate the function being performed. They can store a resolution of two minute or one minute intervals of On and Off Switch closures per 24 hour period depending upon the amount memory integrated into the ASIC. Only a few external components are required to create end products and/or utilize these ASICs in another product.
