    How to stop 555 IC from heating up?

    I was trying to make a LED flasher with 555 IC. Then I thought how about I set a transformer with the output-ground pins. And I also reduced the resistance between 7 and 6 pin. And I am getting a 31V AC output from my transformer output panel. Looks like it is possible to make an inverter with...

    LM335 to control 555 timer

    Hey, For my project I am trying to use a LM335Z to control the duty cycle of the output of a 555 timer. So the duty cycle output of the 555 timer is 5 to 95% is this possible? I had tried to use a thermistor to control the 555 timer to get a 5 to 95% duty cycle, with a 50% duty cycle at 25...
