I misread the diagram, the 75K is R7 = 5K

Thanks Rick for a Excellent Explanation of the 555 Timer!! Our little Friend has been around since 1970 ( Designed by Hans Camerzind) and is still used in Countless applications!! I designed a SCR Tester as well as a Remote Control Tester using this little fellow. thanks from 321reh

Nice explanation. I am using this IC in an audio-modulated flyback transformer driver.

Hey Andy,

Thats just what I need, two lifetimes work projects, lol. That 555 is amazing versatile and so useful too, and I think it is great that it has been around for many years and if you have done anything at all with chips, you know about the 555. Also the 741. Between those two chips, it would be impossible to run out of stuff to build, and their cheap too.

Regards

Rick

Hi Rick, I can remember working for a company that was just about to embark on its first solid state project, the team leader went out and brought a 555 and a 9volt battery. You realise that you now have your lifetimes work cut out don’t you, building the seemingly limitless assortment off 555 timer circuits. It’s such a versatile little chip, well done on another nice video. By the way, if you start on the 741 op-amp that should take care of the afterlife as well.

Kind Regards ... Andy
