Hello all, I am very new to the site and was wondering if I could get some help on a project that I am working on. I will describe below what I need and would be happy to hear ideas on how to implement.
1. Should be as small as possible
2. Should be able to work off rechargeable battery or 120v ac
3. Needs to generate an output for random period of time from 5 sec to 20 sec or so
4. Needs to generate the above output randomly from between 12 hr and 24 hr or so
5. Needs to have no operator interaction at all
6. Can use any method to achieve the above
7. Needs to be able to drive a pizo speaker as the output
8. Once the output is active and reset the random timer for 4 sets a new time
I have been looking into using a PIC but as yet have not been able to determine if it alone could handle the demands of the requirements.
Thanks for any help or advise that you may have. John
