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.

Abstract: This patent outlines the design of a family of Applications Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) for specific use in stand-alone end products and other devices needing 24 hour timer functions. These ASICs have a built-in real-time clock as well as a memory storage function remembering On and Off switch activity with the ability to repeat it. The ASICs have LED drivers indicating the function being performed. The power-on indicator also doubles as night light feature. These ASICs can store two minute or one minute intervals of power switch changes per day depending upon the amount of shift register memory placed in the ASICs. The memory function doubles as a static shift register for storage as well as providing a large portion of the real time 24 hour clock. These ASICs fully integrate most of the electronics required for stand-alone memory timers. Only a few additional components are required to fully create products using these ASICs.
