Been searching around and was wonder if there was any way to increase the time a button functions. Usually, the button is on for a second then off... trying to figure a means to increase that time to 2-4 seconds.
I use an SR Latch (look up the design on the wiki, it's fairly simple). Hook up the button to the "S" input of the circuit (to "set" the circuit), hook up a chain of delayed repeaters to the "R" input of the circuit (to "reset" the circuit), and hook up the output of the circuit to your door, or whatever you're using.
So essentially, the door opens when you press the button, stays open for however long it takes for the redstone signal to travel through the repeaters, and the door closes once the signal reaches the "R" input of the circuit.

That's basically just a Monostable circuit.

I am the bone of my sword
Steel is my body, and fire is my blood
I have created over a thousand blades
Unknown to death, Nor known to life
Have withstood pain to create many weapons
Yet, those hands will never hold anything
So as I pray, Unlimited Blade Works

Does sound like the monostable, but the clarification of how it works is much appreciated. SR latches have me confusing me a bit.
But working with a simulator, and I see how a monostable circuit works. Thanks again for everyone's tips. :3
Thanks in advance.
Thanks. I think that's helping.
