Electronics and Control
Operation:
•Contains 25 transistors, 2 diodes and 16 resistors
• Maximum operating voltage 16V
• Maximum output current 200mA
• Best treated as a single component with required
input and output
INPUT
PROCESS
OUTPUT
If you input certain signals they will be processed / controlled
in a certain manner and will produce a known output.

Electronics and Control
What the 555 timer is used for:
•To switch on or off an output after a certain time delay i.e.
Games timer, Porch light, Childs mobile, Exercise timer.
•To continually switch on and off an output i.e.
Hazard warning lights, Soft toy, Bicycle indicators.
•As a pulse generator i.e.
To provide a series of clock pulses for a counter.

Digital Terminology:
To use the 555 timer correctly you have to be aware of
the correct terminology:
• Monostable
Time
• Astable Time

Electronics and Control
• MONOSTABLE:
This is a system which has only one stable state.
It can be made to change but it will always return
to its original stable state. A spring operated
push button switch is an example of this.
Monostable circuits are used as timers and as a
single pulse generator.

• ASTABLE:
This is a system which has no stable state. It
changes from one state to the other all the time.
A pendulum swings from one side to the other
continuously. Astable circuits are used to flash
lights or sound a loudspeaker. It can act as a
square wave oscillator
