I'm currently trying to built a simple circuit that converts a continuous close into a 5 second pulse. I.e. if the circuit is closed for more than 5 seconds it automatically breaks/opens again.
I’ve done an illustrating of what I’m after below:
I’ve done a little research and it looks like a 555 timer, resistor and capacitor wired correctly might be able to provide this behaviour. But I’m not sure if this is correct or if it is what the circuit would be and the exact components I should be using.
Any help is appreciated.

PHP:
KEY:
0v = _
_
1.5v =
n = 5 seconds
EXAMPLE:
_________________ __
INPUT __| |_____| |___________
_______ __
OUTPUT 1 __| |_______________| |___________
(Okay)
_______ _______
OUTPUT 2 __| |_______________| |______
(Better)
|<- n ->| |<- n ->|
Any help is appreciated.
