Depends on the microcircuit, temperature... By the way, a capacitor with the correct TKE
must be selected... It’s easier to make a purely digital shaper. Or put a variable
and then spin it.

How about launching ancient games?

In the INT driver, place a variable in parallel with the resistor, and
adjust the INT as it warms up (for a turbo, you don’t need to do this). If there is a strong drift with
warming up, the mikruha in front of the shaper changes. If your computer has a turbo, you can do something like Scorpio, without any capacitors
and resistors.

This is not simpler, but more complicated.
I once tinkered with this, adjusted it... But it works equally well,
if I kept within some fairly wide limits. This is all nonsense.

In kai this is done on one 555IR16 chip.

Is it difficult to throw it in? Otherwise, Kai's scheme is not very bright.

And this cockroach costs $7. And IR16 is many times cheaper.

I called “ALTER” a cockroach.

Kai’s scheme is classified.
And I won’t send anything via snail mail.
