NE555 Delay Timer Relay Switch Module – Adjustable 0–10 Second Delay Take precise control of your electronics with the NE555 Delay Timer Relay Switch Module. Built around the legen dary NE555 timer IC, this compact module delivers a reliable, fully adjustable delay of 0 to 10 seconds — perfect for car dashcam power sequencing, automation projects, pulse generation, and industrial control circuits. Runs on both 5V and 12V DC, making it compatible with a huge range of setups. Made in Mainland China. Key Features Adjustable Delay Time (0–10 Seconds): Set the exact delay your application requires via the onboard potentiometer. No external equipment needed. Expandable Delay Range: Swap out the potentiometer or increase the value of capacitor C1 to extend the delay well beyond the default 10-second range. Delay formula: T = 1.1RC. Dual Voltage Support: Operates on DC 5V or DC 12V, covering most hobby, automotive, and industrial use cases. Power Indicator LED: An onboard LED confirms that the module is live and powered — no guesswork needed during setup or troubleshooting. Relay Activation Indicator LED: A second LED lights up the moment the relay engages, giving you instant visual feedback on relay status. High-Load Relay Output: The built-in relay can switch up to AC 220V / 10A — capable of controlling devices up to 2000W. Relay Current Protection: Onboard protection circuitry safeguards the relay from damaging current spikes. Monostable (One-Shot) Operation: On power-up, the relay activates after the set delay and latches — ideal for "delayed start" and "power-on sequencing" applications.

Frequently Asked Questions Q: What voltage should I use to power the NE555 delay timer relay module? A: The module supports both DC 5V and DC 12V input. Use 5V for microcontroller-based or USB-powered setups, and 12V for automotive or standard lab-bench applications. Q: Can I increase the delay time beyond 10 seconds on this relay timer module? A: Yes! You can extend the delay range by increasing the resistance of the onboard potentiometer or by replacing capacitor C1 with a higher-value capacitor. The delay is calculated using the formula T = 1.1RC, so larger R or C values directly produce longer delays. Q: What maximum load can the relay on this NE555 timer module handle? A: The relay is rated for up to AC 220V at 10A, giving a maximum controllable load of 2000W. Always ensure your connected device does not exceed these ratings, and observe proper electrical safety precautions. Q: Is this module suitable for use in a car dashcam or driving recorder circuit? A: Absolutely. At 12V DC operation, the NE555 delay timer module is an ideal solution for adding a power-on delay to your car dashcam or driving recorder, protecting it from voltage spikes at engine start and ensuring it powers up at the right moment. {"@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "FAQPage", "mainEntity": [{"@type": "Question", "name": "What voltage should I use to power the NE555 delay timer relay module?", "acceptedAnswer": {"@type": "Answer", "text": "The module supports both DC 5V and DC 12V input.
