Description

The NE555, SA555, and SE555 monolithic timing

circuits are highly stable controllers capable of

producing accurate time delays or oscillation. In

the time delay mode of operation, the time is

precisely controlled by one external resistor and

capacitor. For a stable operation as an oscillator,

the free running frequency and the duty cycle are

both accurately controlled with two external

resistors and one capacitor.

The circuit may be triggered and reset on falling

waveforms, and the output structure can source

or sink up to 200 mA.
