ABSTRACT:
A multi-range timer comprising an RC oscillator with a variable resistor whose resistance is varied with rotation of a dial. A fixed frequency divider circuit frequency-divides the output of the RC oscillator. A variable frequency divider circuit receives an output of the fixed frequency divider circuit, and a time setting section having a digital switch switches a frequency division ratio of the variable frequency divider circuit. The time limit is changed by switching the digital switch. The time setting section comprises a dial and a plurality of numerical value scales distinguished from one another by color, each of said scales having the same color as the display surface of said digital switch, which indicates a selected time setting range.
