In this project, I'll make a small circuit capable of controlling a servo, it is a servo tester made out of a 555 timer IC. In the process of making this circuit, we'll make a pcb design for it. This ...

You can use a microcontroller to build a clock. After all, a clock is just something that counts the passage of time. The only problem is that microcontrollers can’t track time very accurately. They ...

Take a Raspberry Pi Pico and connect a 555 timer to one of its GPIOs. Arrange for the 555 to poke the Pico about 10 times a second. Treat that "poke" as an interrupt. On the interrupt, light the ...

This circuit emulates the functionality of the classic 555-Timer IC. It was designed using open-source tools and was taped-out in the Skywater 130nm CMOS process through TinyTapeout on April 19th 2024 ...

Building a retro computer of some sort is a rite of passage for many of us, with some building replicas or restorations of old Commodores, Ataris, and other machines from decades past. Others go even ...

The 555 Timers Madness Competition has been launched by element14, an Avnet community, in honor of the release of the first 555 timer IC (555 oscillator). Members of the element14 Community can ...

This article is part of the 2022 April 1st series in the Humor topic within our Series Library. The ubiquitous 1971 digital miracle—the 555 Timer—is important, replete with 25 transistors, 15 ...

You’re well aware of the IC shortage and its impact. Commentators and analysts have provided many explanations, including unexpectedly high demand, capacity limitations, Covid, and too much reliance ...
