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 ...

In this project, I'll make a small circuit capable of blinking lights, on its output we get a digital signal that we can use to turn on and off an external light like an led or relay for bigger loads.

One of the categories we chose for the One Hertz Challenge is “Could Have Used a 555.” What about when you couldn’t have, but did anyway? The 555 is famously easy to use, but not … ...

We did explicitly ask for projects that use a 555 timer for the One Hertz Challenge, but we weren’t expecting the 555 to be the project. Yet, here we are, with [matt venn]’s Open Source… ...

The 555 timer IC is a well-known integrated circuit having been widely used as a pulse generator. We propose a circuit containing a single 555 IC, an LED, an inductor, two capacitors, and three ...
