In this list, we present a collection of exciting 555 Timer Projects that harness the power of the 555 Timers to create a diverse range of electronic devices and circuits. The standard 555 timer IC is ...

One of the most common clichés around here is that a piece of equipment chosen for a project is always too advanced. If a Raspberry Pi was used, someone will say they should have used an Arduino. If ...

In electronics, a monostable circuit, also known as a one-shot circuit, is a type of multivibrator circuit that has two stable states and one unstable or quasi-stable state. It is used to generate a ...

The NE555 is a popular IC that functions as a timer or an oscillator. It’s an 8-pin IC available in various packages. We are using an SOP-8 package of the IC. Due to the versatile functioning of the ...

[FightCube] wrote in recommending a very helpful piece of circuit simulation software for those of you still constructing entries for the 555 design contest. LTSpiceIV, available from Linear ...

In the classic configuration and most variants of the astable 555 multivibrator circuit, the timing characteristics are based on the charging and discharging of a capacitor. However, it can be argued ...

The 555 timer IC has been reinvented—again. Signetics introduced the enormously popular chip back in 1971, and it quickly became a big hit. Myriad application circuits have used it throughout the ...

Hans Camenzind, the designer of the popular 555 timer IC died this week in Silicon Valley. He was 78. My condolences to his family and friends. Hans came to the U.S. from Switzerland in 1960. He ...
