Introduction To The 555 Timer
The 555 Timer is one of the most popular

and versatile integrated circuits ever produced!
It was first introduced by Hans R. Camenzind in
1970 and brought to market in 1971 by Signetics
(later acquired by Philips).
It is 30 years old and still being used!
It is a combination of digital and analog circuits.
It has been claimed that the 555 gets its name from
the three 5 kΩ resistors used in typical early
implementations.
Typically it has 8 pins, but it has various versions.
Ultra-low power versions of the 555 are also available.
 It is known as the “time machine” as it performs a wide
variety of timing tasks.
Variant IC’s available include the 556 (a 14-pin DIP
combining two 555s on one chip), and the 558 (a 16-
pin DIP combining four slightly modified 555s .
Application’s for the 555 Timer include:
Bounce-free switches and Cascaded timers.
Frequency dividers.
Voltage-controlled oscillators.

Inside 555 Timer IC:
Description of internal circuit:
 The voltage divider (blue) has three equal 5K resistors.
It divides the input voltage (Vcc) into three equal parts.
 The two comparators (red) are op-amps that compare
the voltages at their inputs and saturate depending
upon which is greater.
 The Threshold Comparator (upper)saturates when the
voltage at the Threshold pin (pin 6) is greater than (2/3)Vcc.
 The Trigger Comparator(lower) saturates when the voltage at
the Trigger pin (pin 2) is less than (1/3)Vcc

 The flip-flop (green) is a bi-stable device. It generates
two values, a “high” value equal to Vcc and a “low”
value equal to 0V.
 When the Threshold comparator saturates, the flip flop is
Reset (R) and it outputs a low signal at pin 3.
 When the Trigger comparator saturates, the flip flop is Set
(S) and it outputs a high signal at pin 3.
 The transistor (purple) is being used as a switch, it
connects pin 7 (discharge) to ground when it is closed.
 When Q is low, Q-bar is high. This closes the transistor
switch and attaches pin 7 to ground.
 When Q is high, Q-bar is low. This open the switch and pin
7 is no longer grounded.
Types of 555-Timer circuits:
There are three types of 555-Timer circuits:-
• Monostable Multivibrator.
• Astable Multivibrator.
• Bistable Multivibrator.
 Monostable Multivibrator (or one-shot) Astable Multivibrator puts out a
puts out one pulse each time the switch is continuous sequence of pulses
connected
Monostable Multivibrator(One shot):
Circuit:-
1. In the diagram you can see that we have
connected a resistor “Ra” between the Supply
Voltage(Pin 8) and Threshold Voltage (Pin 6).Also
Threshold And Discharge (Pin 7) is shorted.
2. A capacitor of capacitance “C” is connected
between Threshold (Pin 6) and Ground . the
function of this capacitor is to suppress noise and
deliver energy during the transition time of the
output.
3. Between Control Voltage (Pin 5) and Ground (Pin
1) a Capacitor of capacitance 0.01uF is connected.
Operation:
1) We know that if we leave a capacitor alone then the
capacitor will discharge gradually, so initially we
can consider the voltage of capacitor “C” as 0Volt.
2) Now to start the sequence of ---------- we apply a
negative trigger voltage shown in red color in left
side.
3) When the trigger voltage goes below Vcc/3 voltage
level, at that time in the lower comparator c(L) +ve
pin voltage becomes > -ve pin voltage,
as +ve pin is fixed with Vcc/3 in 555 resistor network and –
ve is connected with trigger voltage. So the output of the
comparator c(L) become high.
4)Now you can see that the output of the comparator c(L) is
connected with the “S” terminal of SR Flip Flop .So we know
that if we give S=1 and R=0 in SR Flip Flop the out put
becomes Q=1 and Q-bar=0,which starts the output signal
(connected with Q) portion shown in red and it becomes high
as shown in the out put graph at right side of the picture.
5)At the same time the capacitor “C” starts to become charged
through resistor “Ra” from.
Vcc(shown in the upper left side of the picture), and
continues upto voltage level 2Vcc/3.
5) Suppose the capacitor takes time “t” to reach the
voltage level 2Vcc/3, so the output remains high
during this time period “t” shown in “yellow” at
output .And during this period any trigger voltage
applied in the trigger pin will have no effect on the
output.
6) Now the capacitor Reaches to voltage level 2Vcc/3 and
exceeds the voltage, at that time in the comparator
c(U) the +ve pin voltage becomes > the –ve voltage
level, as +ve pin is connected with capacitor and –ve
pin is fixed with 2Vcc/3 voltage
Level in 555 resistor network.
7)Here you can see that the R pin in SR flip flop is connected
with the output of the comparator c(U).So the input of SR
flip flop is S=0 and R=1 and output is Q=0 and Q-bar=1.
8)As shown in picture Q ia connected with the output so,
output becomes low shown in green color in output graph.
9)Again we can see that Q-bar is connected with the gate of
the discharge BJT, whose collector is connected with the
capacitor “C” and emitter is grounded. So if the Gate
voltage is “1” then the gate opens and the capacitor
discharges
through the capacitor and becomes oV as it was
initially, shown in capacitor charactaristics graph.
10)Now the whole circuit is in the stage as it was
initially. Now if we give another trigger pulse at
trigger pin then the whole sequence starts again.
By this way the 555 Timer works as monostable

multivibrator in which we get a regulated time
output pulse for each trigger voltage.
Graphical Representation:
Mathematical Calculation:
Equation for charging capacitor is:
e= E{1-e^(-t/Ra*C)}
Here,
e=capacitor voltage.
E=Supply Voltage.
e=Base of Natural Logarithm.
Now,
The voltage across the external capacitor changes exponentially from 0 to (2/3)Vcc,
is given by
Vc=Vcc {1-e^(-t/Ra*C)}
At time t=T, Vc=(2/3)Vcc;
Therefore,
(2/3)Vcc=Vcc {1-e^(-T/Ra*C)}
or, (2/3)= {1-e^(-t/Ra*C)};
or, T=1.1Ra*C.
Therefore, when the output is high, the time interval
becomes, thigh = T.
Practical Circuits:
Some of the frequently used practical circuits are.
 Linear Ramp Generator.
 Missing Pulse Detector.
 Pulse Width Modulator.
 Frequency Divider.
 Ten Minute Timer.
Practical Circuits:
 Missing Pulse Detector (Basic): This transistor can be replaced with a ECG or
NTE159. This is just a basic model but works. Experiment with the values of Resistor and
Capacitor. A good example would be the 'Crashed Aircraft Locator' beacon used in
radio control. If there is no signal it sees it as a missing pulse and sounds buzzer.
 Pulse width modulator :Pulse width modulator produce a PWM signal, a pulse
with a constant frequency but with the duty cycle vary according to a modulating signal.
Here is the schematic diagram of pulse width modulator circuit using 555 IC as the
active component. This pulse width modulator circuit need external pulse train input to
trigger the the 555 monostable circuit. This trigger input sould be a square wave signal
with a fixed frequency. The output of this pulse width modulator circuit will have same
frequency with the trigger input, but with its pulse width proportional to the
modulating input signal at pin 5.
 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
