Fairchild Semiconductor 555
The LM555 is a highly stable controller capable of producing accurate timing pulses. With a monostable operation, the delay is controlled by one external resistor and one capacitor.FEATURES
● High-Current Drive Capability: 200 mA● Adjustable Duty Cycle
● Temperature Stability of 0.005%/°C
● Timing From μs to Hours
● Turn off Time Less Than 2 μs
APPLICATIONS
● Precision Timing● Pulse Generation
● Delay Generation
● Sequential Timing
DESCRIPTION
