It is a running gag around here that whenever a project posts, someone will inevitably point out that it could have been done ...

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 ...

What is the point of reviewing a cheap timer module, especially if it is based on the ubiquitous 555 timer chip? Recently I got an ‘updated’ version of the common 555 timer relay module. This time it ...

Many of us could sit down at the bench and whip up a 555 circuit from memory. It’s really not that hard, which is a bit strange considering how flexible the ubiquitous chip is, and how many ways it ...

Semtech Corp announced a sub-1 V analog timer platform that revolutionizes the conventional 555 timer for low-voltage, battery-operated small appliances. Semtech Corp. announced a sub-1 V analog timer ...

For decades, I’ve had a fascination with voltage-to-frequency converters and the 555 analog timer chip, and therefore a double obsession with VFCs based on the 555. In fact, my first Design Ideas (DI) ...
