What is 555 timer?
555 Timer
A 555 timer is an integrated circuit which is used to generate accurate
time delays and oscillation.

Features
• It can be operated of different power supplies ranging from 4.5 Volts to 15 Volts.

• The name 555 comes from the fact that it contains three 5 Kilo-Ohm resistors in
series to form the voltage divider pattern.

• It can be used either as a pulse generator or an oscillator by operating it in


different modes.

• 555 timer can be operated in both astable and monostable modes.

• They reduce or supply 200mA of load current.


Pin Diagram Pin Function
• GND pin is used to supply a zero voltage to
the IC.

• Trigger pin is used to convert the FF from set


to reset.

• Pin-3 is an output pin.

• Reset pin is used to reset the flip flop.

• Control voltage pin is used to control the


timing of 555 timer.
555 Timer
• The timing cycle is completed when voltage
PIN1 - GROUND PIN5 - CONTROL
on threshold pin is equal to or greater than
two-third of Vc c
PIN2 - TRIGGER PIN6 - THRESHOLD

PIN3 - OUTPUT PIN7 - DISCHARGE • Discharge pin provides a discharge path for
the timing capacitor through the collector of
PIN4 - RESET PIN8 - SUPPLY
the npn transistor, to which it is connected

• Voltage supply pin, is used to supply the


voltage to the IC
Block Diagram How it works?
• Three 5KΩ resistors connected internally
producing a voltage divider network between
pin 8 and pin 1.

• The voltage across this series resistive network


holds the negative inverting input of
comparator two at 2/3 Vcc and the positive non-
inverting input to comparator one at 1/3 Vcc.

• The two comparators produce an output


voltage dependent upon the voltage difference
at their inputs .

• The outputs from both comparators are


connected to the two inputs of the flip-flop
which in turn produces either a “HIGH” or
“LOW” level output.

• The output from the flip-flop is used to control


a high current output switching stage to drive

or “LOW” voltage level at the output pin.
Operating Modes

• Monostable Multivibrator

• Astable Multivibrator

• Bistable Multivibrator
What the 555 timer is used for
• To switch on or off an output after a certain time delay.

Games timer, child's mobile, exercise timer.

• To continually switch on or off an output.

Warning lights, bicycle indicator.

• As pulse generator.

To provide a series of clock pulses for a clock counter.
