I usually find myself either sequencing power to something, building a PWM controller (normally for some flavor of power supply or other switched inductor), or just stretching a signal to human-perceptible time-scales if that helps
#electronics mastodon lend me your wisdom. I keep building stupid little timing doohickeys for stuff and I like having components I can just bring to the bench but I'm also ready to stop designing NE555s or bespoke RC+MOSFET timers into new projects
