555 TIMER IC HISTORY
• The 555 timer IC was first introduced around 1971 by the
Signetics Corporation as the SE555/NE555
• Initially it was called "The IC Time Machine"
• It provided circuit designers with a relatively cheap, stable, and
user-friendly integrated circuit for both monostable and
astable applications.
• Since this device was first made commercially available, a
multitude of novel and unique circuits have been developed
• The past ten years some manufacturers stopped making these
timers
• Yet other companies, like NTE (a subdivision of Philips) picked
up where some left off

555 Timer Schematic Diagram
It consists of 23 transistors, 2 diodes, and 16
resistors.

Applications of 555 Timers
• Monostable &Astable
Multivibrators
• Waveform generators
• Burglar Alarms
• Measurement ,Process &
Control Circuits
• Missing pulse detectors
• Traffic light control
• Automatic Battery chargers
• Logic probes
• DC to DC Converters etc.

•Pin 1 (Ground):- All voltages are
measured w.r.t. this terminal. This is the
most negative supply potential of the
device
•Pin 2 (Trigger Terminal )
This pin is an inverting input to a lower
comparator. This is used to set the flip
flop which causes the output to go high
•Pin 3 (Output Terminal)
There are 2 ways to connect load to the
output terminal.
Pin 3 & Vcc :- Normally On load
Pin 3 & Ground:- Normally off load
8
•Pin 4 (Reset):- To disable or reset
the timer a negative pulse is
applied to this pin. When this pin
isn’t used, it’s connected to Vcc.
Why ??
•Pin 5 (Control Voltage)
The function of terminal is to
control the threshold and trigger
levels. The external voltage or a
pot connected to this pin
determines the pulse width of the
output waveform. When not in
use, it should be connected to
ground through a 0.01uF capacitor
to avoid any noise problem.
9
•Pin 6 (Threshold):- This is an
input to the upper comparator.
Used to reset the flip-flop which
drives the output low.
•Pin 7 (Discharge)
-When the npn transistor
connected to it is turned “on,”
the pin is shorted to ground
– The timing capacitor is usually
between pin 7 and ground and is
discharged when the transistor
turns “on”
•Pin 8 (Supply Voltage):- A
positive supply voltage is applied
to this terminal
BASIC TIMING CONCEPTS
• A resistive voltage divider
consisting of 3 equal resistors
R1 is employed
• VTH= 2Vcc/3 for comparator 1.
• Flip Flop is reset whenever
threshold goes higher than
2Vcc/3.
• VTL=Vcc/3
• Flip Flop is set whenever the
trigger goes below Vcc/3.
• In set state output Q is high
(approx. equal to Vcc) and in
reset the output is low

Description of the 555 Timer as a Monostable
Multivibrator
• Consists of an external
resistor R & capacitor C
• In the stable the flip flop
will be in reset state, thus
Q will be high and Q low.
• Transistor Q1 is driven into
saturation
• VCE≈ 0 so the capacitor is
shorted to ground. i.e. VC≈
0 and output of
comparator 1 is low
12
high
LOW
Description of the 555 Timer as a Monostable
Multivibrator (contd…)
• Vtrigger is kept high (higher
than VTL i.e. Vcc/3)
• Output of comparator 2
will also be low
• Flip flop is in reset state so
Q will also be low i.e. V0≈ 0
• To trigger the monostable
multivibrator , a negative
pulse is applied to the
trigger input terminal
13
LOW
LOW
Description of the 555 Timer as a Monostable
Multivibrator (contd…)
• As Vtrigger goes below VTL i.e. Vcc/3,
the output of comparator 2 goes
high thus setting the flip flop. i.e.
Q=1 Q =0, so the transistor is
cutoff
• Vtrigger is given for a short time so
output of compartor 2 goes low
again.
• Still the ouput is high because R=0
and S=0 result in Q to be in the
previous state.
• Capacitor C now begins to charge
through resistor R and Vc rises
exponentially towards Vcc.
• The high voltage at the ouput is
retained as long as Vc<VTH
14

LOW
Description of the 555 Timer as a Monostable
Multivibrator (contd…)
• Once Vc exceeds VTH , the
output of comparator 1
goes high. Now R=1 and
S=0 so Q=0
• The monostable
multivibrator is now back
in its stable state and is
ready to receive a new
triggering pulse
15

HIGH LOW
Derivation for the width of the pulse in
monostable multivibrator
• The width of the pulse , T is the
time interval that the monostable
multivibrator spends in quasi
stable state.
• Denoting the time instant at
which the trigger pulse is applied
at t=0 , the voltage across
capacitor Vc can be expressed as ,
16
• Substituting Vc=VTH=2/3Vcc
at t=T gives,
T=RC ln 3 =1.1 RC

Used to reset the flip-flop which drives the output low. •Pin 7 (Discharge) -When the npn transistor connected to it is turned “on,” the pin is shorted to ground – The timing capacitor is usually between pin 7 and ground and is discharged when the transistor turns “on” •Pin 8 (Supply Voltage):- A positive supply voltage is applied to this terminal
  • 9. BASIC TIMING CONCEPTS • A resistive voltage divider consisting of 3 equal resistors R1 is employed • VTH= 2Vcc/3 for comparator 1. • Flip Flop is reset whenever threshold goes higher than 2Vcc/3. • VTL=Vcc/3 • Flip Flop is set whenever the trigger goes below Vcc/3. • In set state output Q is high (approx. equal to Vcc) and in reset the output is low 10 2Vcc/3 Vcc/3

  • 11. Description of the 555 Timer as a Monostable Multivibrator • Consists of an external resistor R & capacitor C • In the stable the flip flop will be in reset state, thus Q will be high and Q low. • Transistor Q1 is driven into saturation • VCE≈ 0 so the capacitor is shorted to ground. i.e. VC≈ 0 and output of comparator 1 is low 12 high LOW
  • 12. Description of the 555 Timer as a Monostable Multivibrator (contd…) • Vtrigger is kept high (higher than VTL i.e. Vcc/3) • Output of comparator 2 will also be low • Flip flop is in reset state so Q will also be low i.e. V0≈ 0 • To trigger the monostable multivibrator , a negative pulse is applied to the trigger input terminal 13 LOW LOW
  • 13. Description of the 555 Timer as a Monostable Multivibrator (contd…) • As Vtrigger goes below VTL i.e. Vcc/3, the output of comparator 2 goes high thus setting the flip flop. i.e. Q=1 Q =0, so the transistor is cutoff • Vtrigger is given for a short time so output of compartor 2 goes low again. • Still the ouput is high because R=0 and S=0 result in Q to be in the previous state. • Capacitor C now begins to charge through resistor R and Vc rises exponentially towards Vcc. • The high voltage at the ouput is retained as long as Vc<VTH 14 LOW LOW HIGH HIGH LOW LOW
  • 14. Description of the 555 Timer as a Monostable Multivibrator (contd…) • Once Vc exceeds VTH , the output of comparator 1 goes high. Now R=1 and S=0 so Q=0 • The monostable multivibrator is now back in its stable state and is ready to receive a new triggering pulse 15 LOW LOW HIGH HIGH HIGH LOW
  • 15. Derivation for the width of the pulse in monostable multivibrator • The width of the pulse , T is the time interval that the monostable multivibrator spends in quasi stable state. • Denoting the time instant at which the trigger pulse is applied at t=0 , the voltage across capacitor Vc can be expressed as , 16 • Substituting Vc=VTH=2/3Vcc at t=T gives, T=RC ln 3 =1.1 RC
