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.

You can use a microcontroller to build a clock. After all, a clock is just something that counts the passage of time. The only problem is that microcontrollers can’t track time very accurately. They ...

In this article you will learn how to build an optical theremin using a 555 Timer IC. You will learn the functions of the pins on the 555 chip that are used in this build. You will learn that when the ...

[M. Eric Carr] came up with an interesting build for the 555 contest earlier this year, and we’re pretty sure that it would have kicked the winner of the complex category off the throne if it were ...

Today we are going to create a strobe light for the tips of the wings of an rc airplane using a 555 timer (NE 555 or lm 555 IC) this circuit is very easy to make with few components and most ...
