555 Timer Quiz

This document contains 15 multiple choice questions about the 555 timer integrated circuit. The 555 timer is used in a variety of timer, pulse generation, and oscillator applications. It contains two comparators and can be configured in monostable or astable modes. In monostable mode, the timer produces a single pulse of set duration in response to an external trigger. In astable mode, also called the free-running mode, the timer continuously switches between its two stable states to produce a continuous train of pulses without an external trigger.
