This is a small size led flasher built with the 555 timer IC that is powered from 2 x 1.5V batteries. The circuit can be used as a flashing metronome, dark room timer, memo-reminder or other similar ...

This simple LED driver circuit allows us to drive up to seven LEDs by using a single NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) AA cell. The circuit produces voltage pulses at a much higher level than the input ...

This voltage-booster circuit for driving one or more white LEDs uses a 555 timer as its main element (see the figure). The timer, IC1, functions as a resettable astable multivibrator where R1, R2, and ...

[Bob] has been busy lately putting the finishing touches on three different projects that he plans on entering into the 555 Design Contest. His first entry is a low-power H-bridge, which can be used ...

This stunning piece of art is [Emily Velasco’s] take on the Atari Punk Console. It’s a freeform circuit that synthesizes sound using 555 timers. The circuit has been around for a long time, but her ...
