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 ...

We begin with the DC Motor H-Bridge Control project, which uses two 555 timers to create an H-bridge circuit that controls the direction of a DC motor, offering a great introduction to motor control.

Abstract: It is rare that an integrated circuit stays on the market for 25 years. And it is surprising that, except for a CMOS derivative, the 555 timer has never been updated. It has been shrunk ...

The 555 timer IC, originally introduced by the Signetics Corporation around 1971, is perhaps one of the most popular analog integrated circuits ever produced. In this new Elektor book, the focus is on ...

Working with electricity can be a daunting and life-threatening task if you are a beginner in the electronic/electrical field, and things can go very wrong when electricity is not properly handled, ...

The Astable 555 Timer Calculator simplifies the process of designing and analyzing a stable 555 timer circuits by providing quick and accurate calculations based on user-input component values. By ...

This article is part of the 2022 April 1st series in the Humor topic within our Series Library. The ubiquitous 1971 digital miracle—the 555 Timer—is important, replete with 25 transistors, 15 ...

Here in this project, the 555 Timer is made to operate in the Astable Multivibrator Mode. The 1KΩ Resistor, the 10KΩ POT and the 0.1μF Capacitor connected with respect to Pins 2, 6 and 7 will play an ...
