555 Timer Pin Layout
2 TRIG OUT rises, and interval starts, when this input falls below 1/3 VCC.
6 THR The interval ends when the voltage at THR is greater than at 2/3 Vcc.
4 RESETA timing interval may be reset by driving this input to GND, but the timing does not begin again until RESET rises above approximately 0.7 volts.
5 CTRL "Control" access to the internal voltage divider (by default, 2/3 VCC).
7 DISOpen collector output; may discharge a capacitor between intervals. In phase with output.
3 OUT This output is driven to approximately 1.7V below +Vcc or GND.
555 Timer Pin Descriptions
Square wave output, how?• Capacitor Charge Time: T1 = 0.693(R1+R2)C1• Capacitor Discharge Time: T2 = 0.693(R2)C1 The output frequency is determined by the following
equation:
Simple astable configuration
555 Timer Pin Descriptions
Duty Cycle of waveform – Pulse Width/Period The Duty cycle is determined by the following equation:
Duty Cycle Relationship to output frequency Large R2 wrt R1 Control capacitor reduces noise
555 Timer - Other Applications
Two modes of operation: Monostable Mode – Output Single Pulse Astable Mode – Output Continuous Pulses Bistable Mode – Output acts as Basic Flip-Flop

Overall Results
Frequencies and duty cycle very accurate in first stage
Frequencies loose accuracy in the second stage
Excellent sine wave poor volume quality
Chris’ Final Circuit Diagram
Used potentiometers in the lab to more accurately obtain desired output frequencies
Chris’ 555 Timer Circuit
R2 value determines output frequency. Duty Cycle unaffected because R2 >> R1 Various switches with potentiometers are used to act as
selectors for the output frequency by turning each switch on or off.
Chris’ Filter Circuit
555 Timer Square Wave Output Sine Wave A square wave is the sum of multiple sine waves at odd
multiples of the square wave’s frequency (odd order harmonics)
Chris’ Filter Circuit
Extract the fundamental frequency of the square wave by filtering the higher order sine waves.
Low-pass filter with 600 Hz cutoff frequency and an inverting op-amp connected in series.
