That circuit requires bipolar (+V and -V) power supplies. In post #1 there is a single power source, so you would need a full H bridge.Connect the 555 output to the gates of two mosfets, a P-channel and an N-channel. See **broken link removed** and search for "Complementary MOSFET Motor Controller" (last topic on the page),
This is why I asked about the motor power requirements. A 555 makes a good-enough half-bridge driver, so two 555's will do the entire circuit - IF IF IF the motor current requirement is below 200 mA.
