Hello,
I'm new at electronics and haven't done any projects in a while. Recently, I'm trying to make an auto clicker for my mouse using a 555 timer.
I noticed that if I take a wire and touch the two ends of the switch for the right click the mouse right clicks.
My design is simple I have a 555 timer chip in astable mode outputting to a transistor at about 5hz. I connect that transistor in parallel with the right mouse.
I thought I would be getting the mouse to click at 5hz but it didn't work.
Is it because the 555 chip's output voltage is too low or is this impossible?
ps. I dont want to use relay because it would make my design too bulky and I want to eventually put this circuit in my mouse.
