555 Timer Circuits

AM radio built around 555 timer chip. The only active device (silicon, germanium, or otherwise) is the LM555. The tuning is accomplished with an inductor and a capacitor, and the LM555 acts as an AM demodulator and class-D power amplifier to drive the.... -
Planning on basing a QRP transmitter off of this instructables project, seeing as I have a veritable plethora of 555 ics in my shack toolbox. The problem is, this transmitter is designed to operate a bit below the commerical AM band. How is the general.... -
Can I assume that most of the 555 chips from different manufacturers are interchangable (same pin configuration), however the programs/diagrams have pins that way just to look simpler I can always route my own weird ways on the actual chip to match the.... -
To do this, I want to push a button to initiate the timer, which will then light 3 x leds. After each 5 minute segment is up, one of the LEDs should go out. Finally, when 15 mins is up, I want to ring a bell (just once) using a solenoid. Trouble is - I don`t.... -
It`s a typical AMV (Astable MultiVibrator) setup. The capacitor gets charged through both resistors until 2/3 Vcc is reached (internal comparator level). This sets a flip-flop which activates the Discharge output (DIS). Through DIS and the potentiometer, the.... -
Make a 555 timer base circuit such that O/P pin of 555 is held LOW by default at power on, and the I/P pin is held initially at HIGH at power on. The main requirement of my circuit is that until I/P pin is held LOW for say 200ms, then only the O/P pin must.... -
Power a 12v fan using a darlington so I can control the speed from an Arduino. When I wire up as below nothing happens, even though I`m sending a PWM signal: Please draw a proper circuit. Edit your question and hit Ctrl+M, the current image is unreadable..... -
Make a circuit with a 555 timer to run 72 LEDs all at the same time. I have already made a circuit, but am not sure If it will work safe and long or not. I am putting the picture of the circuit and I want anybody who can help to look at it and see if it.... -
A drink mixer inspired by BAR2D2, I am using a gravity fed pump that is capable of running on a 9v battery. I am using a circuit with a 555 timer to control how long the pump will run. When I hook the pump directly to the battery the pump runs perfect. When.... -
Bold lines are soldered connections, arrows are wire based connections. Red for V_cc, Black for ground, blue for intermediate connection and gold for primary output. Pins 1, 5 are connected to ground (I recognize that 5 should go to a capacitor to ground,.... -
Calculated the output of the transformer to be 125 times (1000 / 8) higher than input. Since 12v is given as input, output should be 1500v (not sure about this).. -
A variable frequency, variably duty cycle 555 configuration in astable mode. I`m using a set of pots to get a wide range of control. It works beautifully. The output is great, but I have a problem. I am driving a couple mosfets directly from the output. But.... -
A relay, which is energised by pulling the low side low using an NPN. I would like a pushbutton to operate the transistor (and therefore the relay) for a time (500ms ish) then deactivate it and wait for the next push (ignoring the button if held). I.... -
This circuit detects when a tube is empty and pulses a piezo buzzer in. 5 second intervals. I have it working with 5v on a breadboard, but I need to move it to 12v from a wall wart. Secondly, with 12v R1 should be 220 1W, but I want to stick with 1/4W.... -
The 8-pin 555 timer must be one of the most useful ICs ever made and it is used in many projects. With just a few external components it can be used to build many circuits, not all of them involve timing! A popular version is the NE555 and this is suitable.... -
An astable multivibrator, often called a free running multivibrator, is a rectangular wave generating circuit. The circuit doesnt need any triggering. The timing of the circuit is determined by the resistors and the capacitors used in it. The details of the.... -

This circuit LED reproduces the first LED sequence at this time used by FISA on behalf of Formula single racing. It may perhaps be alive used with slot car sets (such for example HO shin up AFX/Life Like/Tyco sets) or else means of communication controlled.... -
This is a simple 12VDC to 220AC inverter circuit that can be used produces an AC output at line frequency and 220AC or different voltage by selecting transformer T1. The 555 IC is configured as a low-frequency oscillator, tunable over the frequency range of.... -
The 555 timer IC is an integrated circuit (chip) used in a variety of timer, pulse generation and oscillator applications. The part is still in widespread use, thanks to its ease of use, low price and good stability. As of 2003 [update], it is estimated that.... -
