Description
The 555 timer IC is an integrated circuit (chip) used in a variety of timer, pulse generation, and oscillator applications. The 555 can be used to provide time delays, as an oscillator, and as a flip-flop element.
The 555 timer can be used in an astable circuit where the output voltage alternates between VCC and 0 volts on a continual basis.
The 2 common operating modes of the 555 timer IC are: Monostable mode: In this mode, the 555 functions as a “one-shot” pulse generator.
