ic NE 555 Timer IC Datasheet Applications and Circuit Schematics



NE-555 timer IC was being introduced around May 1971 by the Signetics Corporation, to become known as the NE-555 / SE-555, and was also the very first very mass-produced commercially produced timer IC available at that time. Philips semiconductor was then introduced this 555 timer in mid 1972. Its characteristics for versatility, stability, low cost, simplicity to produce long time delays in a variety of applications, make Electronic Engineers, Circuit Designers from mechanical timers, op amps, and various discrete circuits into the ever increasing ranks of timer users.

Invented by a clever Swiss man, Hans R. Camenzind in 1970, the NE-555 timer IC went on to become a legend in the industry. As we already know, the 555 timer operates in three basic mode: monostable (one shot), astable (oscilatory), and time delay. In the article below each of basic operating mode were described detailly in one sequence with its schematic diagrams.

Another sections you can follow in this datasheet applications are general design consideration of the 555 timer, frequently asked applications question (FAQ), design formulas, and sample of some ingenious applications. The sample of applications were presented such as Missing Pulse Detector, Pulse Width Modulation (PWM), Tone Burst Generator, Long Time Delays, Car Tachometer (click to enlarge the picture above), Auto Burglar Alarm, Cable Tester, Automobile Voltage Regulator, and more. Each sample is given with clear and detail circuit schematic diagrams.

The article is ended with Theory of Operation and The Speed Warning Circuit section. Read on complete information about The NE 555 Timer IC Datasheet Applications and Circuit Schematics with link to download in pdf document provided (source: doctronics.co.uk).

FM Moulator with IC 555

FM Modulator circuit is a simple FM modulation circuit using IC 555, where the resulting modulated signal has a tenuous meeting depends on the signal frequency information.

FM

The resulting signal can be spelled out quite nice and stable so that the result will be more perfect. No winding or inductor in series modulator, so you do not need to bother to make a winding and calculate the value of the coil that you created it. With this circuit the desired value of frequency modulation can be obtained easily by calculating the frequency of IC 555 in general, which is determined by the resistor 6.8 K and 3.3 K and 0.1 UF capacitor. To obtain the other frequencies of your stay replace one or all three components.

Actually fm modulator ic 555 circuit is very simple though, but I think it reliable enough to handle a simple application purposes that do not require a big power or a very high frequency. But if you want more power you can add the RF amplifier circuit at the output of this circuit. Thus, the results of modulated signal can be amplified with the help of a series of supporters. In accordance with my experimental series modulators can work well at frequencies below the MHz range, because it is not IC IC 555 which is devoted to support of a very high frequency. You can use oscilltor transistor circuit, XTAL or others if you need a very high frequency.

The difference circuit with IC 555 on the multivibrator circuit in general is the use of pin 5, on the FM Modulator circuit is pin 5 of IC 555 is used as input information signal, which in turn will influence the shape of the output signal (modulated). But in applying this 5 pin multivibrator functions normally associated with 0.01 UF capacitor or left alone.

Simple 555 Based Alarm Wiring diagram Schematic

This is a Simple 555 Based Alarm Circuit Diagram.The alarm schema has a single 555 oscillator/timer (Ul) performing double duty; serving both in the alarm-trigger schema arid the entry- delay schema. In this application, the trigger input of IJ1 at pin 2 is held high via Rl. A normally-closed sensor switch, SI, supplies a positive voltage to the junction of R2 and CI, and lights LED1.

With both ends of CI tied high, there is no charge on CI. But when SI opens, CI (initially acting as a short) momentarily pulls pin 2 of Ul low, triggering the timed delay circle.At the beginning of the timing cycle, Ul produces a positive voltage at pin 3, which charges C4 to near the positive voltage at pin 3, which charges C4 to near the positive supply voltage.

Transistor Q1 is heavily biased on by R3, keeping its collector at near ground level. With Q1 on, SCRl`s gate is clamped to ground, holding it off. When the delay schema times out, pin 3 of Ul goes low and ties the positive end of C4 to ground. That turns Q1 off.When Q1 turns off, the voltage at the gate of SCR goes positive, turning on the SCR and sounding the alarm. The delay time is adjustable from just a few seconds (R6 set to its minimum resistance) to about one minute (R6 adjusted to its maximum resistance).
