Introduction

IC 555

IC 555 is an astable multivibrator (oscillator).

Frequency: The ON time is defined by the time taken to its capacitor to charge to 1/e level through pin7 resistor, and the OFF time is the discharging time of the capacitor through pin7.

Theory

Method 1

Failed to parse (Conversion error. Server ("https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_") reported: "Cannot get mml. Server problem."): {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}T_{\text{on}}=0.693(R_{1}+R_{2})C\\T_{\text{off}}=0.693R_{2}C\\F={\frac {1.44}{(R_{1}+2R_{2})C}}\end{aligned}}}

Method 2: with diodes
