This voltage-booster circuit for driving one or more white LEDs uses a 555 timer as its main element (see the figure). The timer, IC1, functions as a resettable astable multivibrator where R1, R2, and ...

This is a small size led flasher built with the 555 timer IC that is powered from 2 x 1.5V batteries. The circuit can be used as a flashing metronome, dark room timer, memo-reminder or other similar ...

The purpose of building this circuit is to create a LED flasher with alternating sequence from the two LEDs where the operation is based on the functionalities of a 555 timer integrated circuit. 555 – ...

This stunning piece of art is [Emily Velasco’s] take on the Atari Punk Console. It’s a freeform circuit that synthesizes sound using 555 timers. The circuit has been around for a long time, but her ...
