I am new to the forum and to the field of electronics in general. As background, I did build my own PC though that is a different skill set.
My project is that I would like to run a 1.5 to 3VDC Hobby Motor to run for lets say 5 seconds every 15 minutes. I'm not too anxious to start with a whole microcontroller project. Can I do this using resistors or capacitators? This will need to run 24/7 so it can't run too hot or be a fire hazard or anything. Low cost is a priority.
I realize this question is general and if there is a resource that I can read without taking up too much time, I'd be glad to RTFM.
Thanks in advance.
