| 555 Timer |
555 Timer is an integrated circuit used for a variety of Timer Applications. It is used for the timer, pulse generation, and oscillator applications. 555 timer was introduced by the signetics in 1972.
it is the most popular Integrated Circuit ever manufactured.
Depending on the manufacturer, the standard 555 package includes 25 transistors, 2 diodes and 15 resistors on a silicon chip installed in an 8-pin dual in-line package (DIP-8).
555 timer ic comes as NE555 or SE555 these are the temperature designations for the ICs, where NE555 is for commercial temperature range and SE555 is for military temperature range.
commercial temperature ranges from 0 to 70 degree and military temperature ranges from -55 to +125 degrees.
Features of 555 timer IC -
- It operates over the voltage range of +5 volts to +18 volts.
