555 Timer Datasheet

The 555 timer IC is an integral part of electronics projects. Be it a simple project involving a single 8-bit microcontroller and some peripherals or a complex one involving system on chips (SoCs), a 555 timer is involved. These provide time delays, as an oscillator and as a flip-flop element among other applications.

Depending on the manufacturer, the standard 555 timer package includes 25 transistors, 2 diodes, and 15 resistors on a silicon chip installed in an 8-pin mini dual-in-line package (DIP-8). Variants consist of combining multiple chips on one board. However, 555 is still the most popular.

555 timer is used in almost every electronic circuit today. A 555 timer works as a flip-flop or as a multi-vibrator, it has a particular set of configurations. Some of the major features of the 555 timers would be,

This configuration consists of one stable and one unstable state. The stable state can be chosen as either high or low by the user. If the stable output is set at high (1), the output of the timer is high (1).

At the application of an interrupt, the timer output turns low (0). Since the low state is unstable it goes to high (1) automatically after the interrupt passes. Similar is the case for a low stable monostable mode.

These two values are determining the behavior of the system timers. They are integer values and the express 100 ns units. However, this is already insufficient for certain hardware today. On some systems ActualResolution is returned 9766 which would correspond to 0.9766 ms. But in fact these systems are operating at 1024 interrupts per second (tuned by proper setting of the multimedia interface). 1024 interrupts a second will cause the interrupt period to be 0.9765625 ms. This is of too high detail, it reaches into the 100 ps regime and can therefore not be hold in the standard ActualResolution format.

I can create a timer easily enough...... but I cant seem to find a way to add it to a data screen in an active activity. Presently I have to go back and forth between my current activity and the timer function so see how much time is left on the timer.

If I understand you correctly you would like to show the countdown timer widget value in the Activity screen. That is not possible unfortunately, as they are two different kind of applications and the Timer you can see in the Activity is not the same timer you can see in the countdown widget. The activity timer is just simply counts the time from the start of the session.

I wrote it for cyclocross racing but it really is just a countdown timer that is a data field. You set the start time in the app config on your phone and then it counts down until it reaches 0 and then displays whatever message you set.

Edwin Sarmiento has been producing a first-timer's guide for the PASS Data Community Summit since 2016. He has updated this for 2023 and you can see Edward's announcement of the guide on Twitter here. Download the guide and you'll find some amazing information.

I am trying to design a .vi that tracks the results of a race for a 5/10k. Once the .vi is started, the elapsed time function begins and is displayed on the front panel. This would continue until the program is stopped with with "Stop" button on the front panel. While this timer is going, if the "Bib Number" control value is changed, it records the new bib number and the elapsed time of the event. I have this much working, but I have a few issues.

The 555 timer IC is an integrated circuit used in a variety of timer, delay, pulse generation, and oscillator applications. It is one of the most popular timing ICs due to its flexibility and price. Derivatives provide two (556) or four (558) timing circuits in one package.[2] The design was first marketed in 1972 by Signetics[3][4] and used bipolar junction transistors. Since then, numerous companies have made the original timers and later similar low-power CMOS timers. In 2017, it was said that over a billion 555 timers are produced annually by some estimates, and that the design was "probably the most popular integrated circuit ever made".[5]

The timer IC was designed in 1971 by Hans Camenzind under contract to Signetics.[3] In 1968, he was hired by Signetics to develop a phase-locked loop (PLL) IC. He designed an oscillator for PLLs such that the frequency did not depend on the power supply voltage or temperature. Signetics subsequently laid off half of its employees due to the 1970 recession, and development on the PLL was thus frozen.[6] Camenzind proposed the development of a universal circuit based on the oscillator for PLLs and asked that he develop it alone, borrowing equipment from Signetics instead of having his pay cut in half. Camenzind's idea was originally rejected, since other engineers argued the product could be built from existing parts sold by the company; however, the marketing manager approved the idea.[7]

The first design for the 555 was reviewed in the summer of 1971.[8] After this design was tested and found to be without errors, Camenzind got the idea of using a direct resistance instead of a constant current source, finding that it worked satisfactorily.[8] The design change decreased the required 9 external pins to 8, so the IC could be fit in an 8-pin package instead of a 14-pin package.[8] This revised version passed a second design review, and the prototypes were completed in October 1971 as the NE555V (plastic DIP) and SE555T (metal TO-5).[9] The 9-pin version had already been released by another company founded by an engineer who had attended the first review and had retired from Signetics; that firm withdrew its version soon after the 555 was released. The 555 timer was manufactured by 12 companies in 1972, and it became a best-selling product.[6]

The 555 found many applications beyond timers. Camenzind noted in 1997 that "nine out of 10 of its applications were in areas and ways I had never contemplated. For months I was inundated by phone calls from engineers who had new ideas for using the device."[8]

Several books report the name "555" timer IC derived from the three 5 k resistors inside the chip.[10][11][12] However, in a recorded interview with an online transistor museum curator,[13] Hans Camenzind said "It was just arbitrarily chosen. It was Art Fury (marketing manager) who thought the circuit was gonna sell big who picked the name '555' timer IC.."[14]

Depending on the manufacturer, the standard 555 package incorporated the equivalent of 25 transistors, 2 diodes, and 15 resistors on a silicon chip packaged into an 8-pin dual in-line package (DIP-8).[15] Variants available included the 556 (a DIP-14 combining two complete 555s on one chip),[16] and 558 / 559 (both variants were a DIP-16 combining four reduced-functionality timers on one chip).[2]

The pinout of the 8-pin 555 timer[1] and 14-pin 556 dual timer[21] are shown in the following table. Since the 556 is conceptually two 555 timers that share power pins, the pin numbers for each half are split across two columns.[2]

A 555 timer can act as an active-low SR latch (though without an inverted Q output) by connecting a Reset input signal to the RESET pin and connecting a Set input signal to the TR pin. Thus, pulling Set momentarily low acts as a "set" and transitions the output to the high state (VCC). Conversely, pulling Reset momentarily low acts as a "reset" and transitions the Out pin to the low state (GND).

The dual version is called 556. It features two complete 555 timers in a 14-pin package; only the two power-supply pins are shared between the two timers.[21][16] In 2020, the bipolar version was available as the NE556,[21] and the CMOS versions were available as the Intersil ICM7556 and Texas Instruments TLC556 and TLC552. See derivatives table in this article.[17][39][38]

The quad version is called 558 and has four reduced-functionality timers in a 16-pin package designed primarily for monostable multivibrator applications.[49][2] By 2014, many versions of 16-pin NE558 have become obsolete.[50]

I am having a hard time understanding this tutorial. I am using ACF custom field in a post type, not option pages. Following this tutorial throws a critical error on the page where the countdown timer is. Has anyone had success with this?

Of course you can. You declare the global variable, then assign a value to it in the BLYNK_WRITE(vPin) function for the slider, then use this variable (multiplied by 60,000 to convert from minutes to milliseconds) in your timeout timer.

Question 2 :

I want to monitor the data for a long period of time, therefore I would like to have a timer that reads the data into a csv/excel file from a given start date, so day , hour and minutes and the readings should stop for a given end data: day,hour, minutes.
