[Bob] has been busy lately putting the finishing touches on three different projects that he plans on entering into the 555 Design Contest. His first entry is a low-power H-bridge, which can be used ...

Sometimes the best inspiration is limitation. The 555 timer does “one thing” — compares a voltage to a couple thresholds and outputs a signal accordingly. It’s two comparators, a voltage ladder, and a ...

This is a very simple touch sensor switch that is build with the 555 timer IC. You just need to touch the metal plate and the relay gets energised and is kept in this state for about 100 seconds, then ...

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.
