Part of Design and Technology Electronic and microelectronic control systems The 555 timer is a versatile integrated circuit (IC) that can control timing in electronic circuits. It's one of the most ...

In these days of cheap microcontrollers, it is hard to remember there was a time when timing things took real circuitry. Even today, for some applications it is hard to beat the ubiquitous 555 timer ...

You’re well aware of the IC shortage and its impact. Commentators and analysts have provided many explanations, including unexpectedly high demand, capacity limitations, Covid, and too much reliance ...

The purpose of building this circuit is to create a LED flasher with alternating sequence from the two LEDs where the operation is based on the functionalities of a 555 timer integrated circuit. 555 – ...
