In this project, I'll make a small circuit capable of controlling a servo, it is a servo tester made out of a 555 timer IC.

A low pulse on this pin (below 1/3 of VCC) sets the internal flip-flop and makes the output go HIGH. When the voltage on this pin reaches 2/3 of VCC, it resets the flip-flop, and the output goes LOW.

Today we are going to create a strobe light for the tips of the wings of an rc airplane using a 555 timer (NE 555 or lm 555 IC) this circuit is very easy to make with few components and most ...

You can use a microcontroller to build a clock. After all, a clock is just something that counts the passage of time. The only problem is that microcontrollers can’t track time very accurately. They ...

Oscillators, is there anything they can’t do? Well, of course there are. But what they can do – especially in space as part of a satellite system – is pretty cool. Oscillators are mechanical or ...

This circuit emulates the functionality of the classic 555-Timer IC. It was designed using open-source tools and was taped-out in the Skywater 130nm CMOS process through TinyTapeout on April 19th 2024 ...

Abstract: Integrating electronics into the body of complex structural parts through 3-D printing is one of the most promising new technologies in additive manufacturing, giving the potential of ...

It has become a bit of a running joke in the Hackaday community to suggest that a project could or should have been done with a 555 timer. [Tim] has rather taken this to heart with his latest ...

The 555 Timers Madness Competition has been launched by element14, an Avnet community, in honor of the release of the first 555 timer IC (555 oscillator). Members of the element14 Community can ...
