Here is a circuit that will output a PWM wave good for varying the speed of a DC motor. Why is this not going to work? How would you fix it? The 555 timer can’t handle that type of load, and it is not ...

The 555 timer IC is a handful of active components all baked into one beautifully useful 8 pin package. Originally designed for timing purposes, they became ubiquitous parts that can achieve almost ...

This is an interesting project circuit named TV remote jammer circuit that helps to confuse the IR receiver present in TV by producing constant signal which interferes the remote control signal. This ...

“You could’ve done that with a 555 timer.” But what if all you have on hand is an ESP8266? [TechColab] needed to control a solenoid valve with a short pulse via a solid-state relay (SSR) but found ...

The 555 timer IC is an integrated circuit (chip) which is used in a variety of timer, delay, pulse generation, and oscillator applications. 555 Signals and Pinout (8 pin DIP) Figure below shows the ...
