View attachment 55096The 555 timer is capable of producing accurate timing ranges from microseconds to hours and therefore has many practical uses for every level of electronics. It is an especially good integrated circuit for electronic hobbyists to learn with. I will guide you through the basics and will also show you an example circuit.

Some features:

• Operates on a range of supply voltages
• Timing from micro seconds to hours.
• Monostable and astable operation...

can you show me how to get the equations above

 

[jayavelu]

please tell me what will be maximum value of resistor and capacitor that i can use in monostable multivibrator in 555, max value of resistors and capacitor in astable multivibrator. maximum time in monostable, min and max freq in astable....your tutorial is really good.....thank you very much......
