We
Are
Learning
To
Understand the concept of a 555IC, Integrated Circuit.
Use Live Wire / Crocodile Technology software to construct the electronic circuit diagram.
This is because .. We can learn how to use digital electronic circuits which provides opportunities for a range of systems that control timing, flashing effects, etc. for different applications in project work.

555 timer is configured as a Monostable circuit.
This means when the IC is triggered, the output (pin 3) will go high
(9V) for a pre-determined time i.e. the LED is unlit. Output pin 3 will
then return low, (0V), and remain in this condition until re-triggered.
How circuit is triggered:
Consider PTM switch is open, the voltage at bottom of R2 is 9V
(connection also to pin 2).
When PTM switch is closed the voltage on pin 2 will drop to 0V, and if
immediately released the voltage will again jump to 9V i.e. a negative
pulse has been produced. This negative pulse applied to pin 2,
triggers the IC, and the output (pin 3) goes high for a period that can
be set by theVR1, C1 combination

Calculating the Time Delay:
For the 555 timer IC the delay time is given by the
equation –
t = 1.1 x C x R
R = 470 k Ohms C = 100 micro Farads
= 470 000 Ohms = 0.0001 Farads
t = 1.1 x 470 000 x 0.0001
t = 51.7 seconds

• Switch is pressed, potential at pin 2 is 5V (logic 1).• Assuming that pin 3 (output of IC 1b) is at 0V.• Output (pin 1) will switch from logic 1 to logic 0.• Voltage change is transmitted instantly by the capacitor, making
pins 5 & 6 change to logic 0, causing the output pin 4 to change state from logic 0 to logic 1 and the LED to switch on.

Dark Detector:
It will sound an alarm if it gets
too dark. For example, this
circuit could be used to notify
when a lamp (or bulb) burns
out. The detector used is a
regular cadmium-sulphide
Light Dependent Resistor or
LDR, for short, to sense the
absence of light and to
operate a small speaker. The
LDR enables the alarm when
light falls below a certain level
Tilt Switch:
Actually really a alarm circuit, it shows how to use a 555 timer and a small glass-encapsulated mercury switch to indicate 'tilt'.The switch is mounted in its normal 'open' position, which allows the timer output to stay low, as established by C1 on start-up. When S1 is disturbed, causing its contacts to be bridged by the mercury blob, the 555 latch is set to a high output level where it will stay even if the switch is returned to its starting position. The high output can be used to enable an alarm of the visual or the audible type. Switch S2 will silent the alarm and reset the latch. C1 is a ceramic 0.1uF (=100 nano-Farad) capacitor
Metronome:
A Metronome is a device used in the music industry. It indicates the rhythm by a 'toc-toc' sound which speed can be adjusted with the 250K potentiometer. Very handy if you learning to play music and need to keep the correct rhythm up
Ten-Minute Timer:
Can be used as a time-out warning for Ham Radio. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requires the ham radio operator to identify his station by giving his call-sign at least every 10 minutes. This can be a problem, especially during lengthy conversations when it is difficult to keep track of time. The 555 is used as a one-shot so that a visual warning indicator becomes active after 10-minutes. To begin the cycle, the reset switch is pressed which causes the 'Green' led to light up. After 10 minutes, set by the 500K potentiometer R1, the 'Red' led will light to warn the operator that he must identify
