The project aims to create a PWM controller that contains a frequency range from about 170 to 200Hz to achieve a pulse width regulation featuring almost 0-100% with a relatively stable oscillator ...

Simply adding a diode and potentiometer to a 555 timer operating in the asynchronous mode yields a pulsewidth modulator (PWM) with a duty factor adjustable from 1% to 99% (Fig. 1). Applications would ...

The project was designed to build a frequency generator based on 555 timer that can be used as a body zapper. The project was designed to build a frequency generator based on 555 timer that can be ...

If you’re not familiar with the 555 timer, suffice it to say that this versatile integrated circuit is probably the most successful ever designed, and has been used in countless designs, many of which ...

The 555 timer IC is a handful of active components all baked into one beautifully useful 8 pin package. Originally designed for timing purposes, they became ubiquitous parts that can achieve almost ...
