I need to learn more about that; this is one of those technical advances that kind of sneaked by me. I was trying to figure out if I could replace my washer timer with something like that, 30 year old Maytag and can't get parts, but then it started working again.

They really really don't make them like that anymore.

They are really simple and inexpensive. For your washer timer one
should work fine. They have several inputs and outputs. There are
internal timmers you can set the time of. So you input a signal on one
pin and start a timer. When it times out, send a signal to one of the
output pins. Then start the process all over again with another input
and output.

While they will do more, they really excell at things like a minature
PLC.

There are some learning kits for around $ 100.
