3. The doubling and inverting circuits can be merged to produce circuits that do both, while using only a single NE555 (a) or LM386 (b). We can combine the previous converter circuits and develop ...

My own experiment with the NE555 is displayed in Figure 4 below. The compact layout produces reasonably clean signals. All of the components shown in the schematic except the power supply are on the ...

[Peter Lin] demonstrated this in the video below the break, by creating an ultrasonic levitation system using only the trusted chip of all true experimenters, the NE555. (Video, embedded below ...

One-shot circuits are popular choices for the on/off control circuitry. You can interface the programmable one-shot design in Figure 1 with any intelligent system, such as a PC, a µP, or a µC. The ...

* Most prototyping techniques, like deadbug, manhattan, and whatever NE555 calls this, make it relatively simple to rip out part of a circuit and redo it without throwing away the rest of the circuit.
