Circuit Diagram (Simulation Screenshot - SEE NOTES!)

Diagram Notes:

- Component labels above now match component labels on PCB and Parts List

- The type of multivibrator used in the simulation has an output pulse of 0.7*Rx*Cx instead of tx=Rx*Cx like the one used in the real circuit. I increased capacitance in the circuit to account for the difference.

- The output of the circuit is at LED2 (emitter of Q2)

- The real NAND gates get 5volts instead of 4volts as shown on the layout.

- The NAND gates should form an AND function between the input pulse and the max pulse. The output of this AND function is then OR'd with the 2.2ms pulse. This should bound the output pulse between 2.2ms and 3.9ms.
