Hi, i am in the middle of building a circuit that uses a 555NE chip.
Im confused as to what pin is what, i thought it starts, top left is 1, then below 2 then 3 then 4, to the right of four is 5, above 6, then 7 then 8.
In some diagrams i see these numbers all over the place. I havent a clue why, if someone has any explanations, much appriciated before i go and ruin my circuit
Looking at the top of the 555 the numbering is as shown in the attachment. Sometimes schematic diagrams do not always have the
pins in order of their placement on the actual package.
