THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! I FINALLY LEARNED HOW TO CORRECTLY MAKE THIS CIRCUIT!! Before this, while I was using a software to simulate circuits, I probably built up an entire graveyard of virtual exploded capacitors, but with this tutorial, everything finally worked properly!
Glad to hear! Thanks for watching!
Mate you're a legend. I was getting a headache looking at poorly drawn circuit diagrams on the datasheet!
I have searched in what seems to be everywhere for a strobe light for my record player but cannot seem to find one, and thanks to you I've designed a 60Hz 555 circuit to handle it for me! Thank you so much for the video my friend!
Happy to hear!
These step by step instructions are very helpful. Thanks for the upload.
Glad to hear, thanks for watching!
Thanks A LOT!! Now I finally finished the project me and my dad started when I was youger. We tried to make a set of turn signals for my Pedal Go- Kart!
Glad it helped, thanks for watching!
Thank you. You can really get it blinking by putting the negative side of capacitor on pin 1 ground and the positive side to pin 2 :) also you do not need any jumper wires to the rest At least not with my 555 timer I'm using the Texas instruments NE555P timer. I think each person has their own way and finds it. This is a great introduction video on the 555 timer GREAT JOB, and I love watching your videos.
Enjoyed this video and the explanation of astable mode for the 555 timer looking forward to seeing more videos like this thank you.
Glad to hear, thank you!
Concise and easy explanation. Thanks, it really helped.
Glad to hear, thanks for watching!
Thank you so much!! This detailed explanation helped out a bunch!!
Glad to hear! Thanks for watching!
Really good walk through of how to set up this chip. Great job.
Thanks!
I just did a search for 555 timer and got this one 70K views congrats
Thanks! My best performing videos get a large part of their views from google searches.
Gracias x su vdo. Si alguien no comprendió del todo este vdo le recomiendo vea primero los componentes internos del 555. Cuando los vea se dará cuenta de que tiene que tener conocimientos de: 1) Divisores de tension. 2) Circuitos RC. 3) FLIP FLOPS. 4) Amplificadores operacionales, función COMPARADOR. 5) Transistor NPN. 6) BUFFER. 7) Resistores tipo PULL UP y PULL DOWN. 8) Saber qué es frecuencia. 9) Saber qué es pulso. 10) Saber qué es onda cuadrada. Si comprendemos lo anterior, podremos utilizar de manera asombrosa este integrado. Saludos desde Guatemala. I LOVE THIS VDO.
I was working too much at the time to reply. I don't mind other languages ;)
¡Gracias por la traducción!
very helpful!!!
Glad to hear, thanks for watching!
Thank you so much, it worked
Glad to hear, thanks for watching!
Best explanation I came across with practical explanation. I was scratching my head that why the hell there are so many resistor around the pins 6 and 7.
Thank you Sir
Glad to hear, thanks for watching!
Prefect just what I was looking for...
Great!
@@Electronzapsame here exactly what I was looking for, am a student and this video explained and taught me to how build a circuit using a 555 timer and I got a good grade. Thanks!
Glad to hear, thanks for watching!@@jamorant4657
Thanks man helped

Good video
Thanks for watching!
Amazing
Thanks!
i just found this video after seeing that other one with the variable resistor, now i have what i need to make this circuit thanks to your upload. i subscribed. you make good videos. thanks.
Glad to hear, thanks!
Just what i was looking for!
Do you have schematics
Wow!!
Thanks!
Hello! Complete newbie here.
I've found another video with the same exact diagram except for two components: the capacitor is 4,7 and he linked a speaker instead of a led in the same position. As result, the guy in the other video has the 555 to behave like an oscillator.
Myself, having a 47 capacitor only at the moment, had a kind of metronome as a result. (It means: I did exactly as shown in your video and I got the same result).
Is the capacitor 10x smaller to prevent the 555 to behave as an oscillator?
Speakers have a series capacitor so that current alternates direction through the speaker each time the output switches between high and low. Whereas LED and their protective resistors are connected directly to the output and one of the supply rail so that it lights up when the output is the opposite voltage of what the supply rail the LED is headed to. The timing depends on the total value of the timing resistors and the timing capacitor. A higher total resistance and capacitance = a slower flashing LED, or clicking with a speakers. A lower total resistance and capacitance = a faster flash, may even look steady, or a higher pitch sound from a speaker.
Can you do a video where you use a potentiometer instead of the 2 resistors?
I think you can, but depending on the size of the potentiometer, you get finer or worse adjustment.
Instead of sending the RESET pin to ground, would simply removing it from VCC prevent the chip from outputting without damaging it or doing abnormal things? I want to use both sides of a 556 timer, each connected so that one side is in monostable controlling the other side in astable.
Letting the reset pin float might still work, but a weak low signal of any kind can accidentally reset it. Instead of a direct connection to Vcc you can also use a high value resistor to hold the reset pin high until you want to give it a much stronger low signal. the 555 output is also either at the negative rail or close to the positive rail. It's never completely disconnected from the power supply. So connecting the output to a set or reset pin will prevent the pin from floating while controlling it. Hope that helps!
@@Electronzap That's very helpful! Just one more question; Since I need to give it a high signal to operate the timer, I should be able to connect reset to ground through a resistor so that it's held low until I give it a high signal from the output of the other timer, right?
Giving the reset pin a low signal overrides anything else the 555 timer is doing and keeps the output and discharge pin low (connected to the negative rail) no matter what. So, if that's useful, then you can definitely hold the reset pin low until you want to give it a high signal. Giving the reset pin a high signal though doesn't do anything unless the set pin gets/has a low signal. Both set and reset pins only do something when they are given a low signal. There's a few options for controlling it as long as you follow it's rules.
@@Electronzap Ok, thanks for the info!
Thanks for watching!
So connecting a capacitor from pin 5 to ground and adjusting the resistance values should give me a less than 50% duty cycle output right? Trying to use this to trigger a Mosfet for a converter.
I've haven't done anything with pin 5, the control pin, yet, so I'm not a very good person to ask. I just know that it is intended to change the RC timing based on the voltage applied to it. Consulting a datasheet might help a lot.
@@Electronzap I see, thanks a lot though. You've explained this circuit really well.
Yes Siddharth, you can control a MOSFET using 555... connecting a capacitor between pin 5 and ground is essential else volrage at Pin 5 may change due to noise.....
is it possible to wire the output from this timer into a CD40106 inverter to make it light up on the low and turn off on the high? Also, how would i change the amount of time that the LED is off or on?
or is there any way to make the high be shorter and the low be longer? i am thinking like 1 second of high and 10 seconds of low
hey my friend I need to make a square signal that have not any small changes in frequency or pulse width but ics like 555 timer can not be like that and have small changes is there any way???
You'll need a square wave generator. I've never made a high precision one, so you'll have to do google/youtube searches to come up with one. Hope it goes well!
Is this can power up little 180° servo forward & back continuesly without any button?
In 3 hours, I have a video that goes live where I use a trimpot and 555 timer to move a servo. I'll figure out how to modify it later on, but for now, that's all I really have.
Please Can you make bell door electronic multi tone .and sound of bird used the i c 555 thanks for you .
Probably won't get around to it for a while, but I was looking at some 555 sound generating circuits lately, so I'll try to remember that theres interest.
Hi there, Is it possible you can give me the circuit diagram you used? I can't seem to find it on your website.. I'd appreciate it a bunch
If I didn't use one in a video, then I probably didn't make one for that video. I have more astable mode 555 timer videos on CZcams where I made a schematic. I'd link them but I'm not on my laptop right now. Sometimes I ave built a circuit in a video without drawing a schematic but people tend to not like that, so now I try to always make one a schematic or use an old one. So, pretty much every circuit should have a video with a schematic if you search through my videos. Thanks for watching and visiting the website!
Oh yeah, if you go to my CZcams page, and click the community tab, I post almost all the diagrams that I use in my videos there, plus a link to the video.
aight thanks man@@Electronzap
can we use different resistor values ???
Sure can. When using 9 volts, I try to keep the resistors above 470Ω so they don't overheat but other than that, you can use any value you want/have. Low value resistors and/or capacitor will make the LED flash so fast that it always looks on and high values might make it take forever to flash and will make the LED really dim.
Is it possible to use this with many LEDs? If so, how?
Yeah, you can have a bunch of parallel resistor and LEDs. If that's too much power for the 555 timer output to handle, then you can use the 555 output to control transistors with parallel resistors and LEDs. Ideally, each LED should have its own protective resistor. I would google "lighting a lot of LEDs" to find websites that explain all this in better detail than I can.
You can connect in series also, voltage drop accrosse each LED is 1.7V, if Vcc of 555 must be greater than 1.7 × no of LEDs (For 555 Vcc(max) is 18 V. So you can connect upto 10 LEDs as mentioned above... value of current limiting resistance in the above case is (Vcc - 1.7 ×n)/ 10mA - typical value of LED current is 10mA....
hi! do you have the schematic of this circuit?
yes i have watch my video :-czcams.com/video/M6WvqY4Jcqo/video.html
I had to giggle as when You mentioned You had forgotten to jump the Pos and Neg rails on other side of board because you usually use both sides as I also prefer doing myself ,but i wondered how long it took You to figure out as in my case it was hilarious as i was making a remote circuit with a relay , 2 transistors, 2 leds ,resistors , 1 relay and a cd4017 and i could not understand why the LED would not light up.
I was building it from a Schematic I found on You tube and I knew it was suppose to work and each time it failed no matter what and every time i took each components out and rewired everything about 5 times over 2 hours till i realized i only had power on one side, while most of the required voltage was suppose to come from the right and all along ( my preference) but i had forgotten to put the Jumpers in. so I had to laugh when at times most of the mistakes I made were lack of common sense which is too familiar to me lol.
Usually I figure out what's wrong pretty quickly. New circuits are the ones that really get confusing, but you learn a lot once you figure it out. And then it is easy to troubleshoot circuits like that from then on.
Hlow can everyone help me how Ican make timer work five second I wont use for airbag light for my car
انت عايز تعمل بيها نور الair bag ؟
nice,but you dont mention what type of diode and no schematic
Here's an updated video where I drew out a diagram with schematic czcams.com/video/MYWOIKHkVOU/video.html and explained the circuit better. The diode is a 1N4001, which is the most commonly used diode in this black packaging with gray stripe. It is the main diode that most electronics kits provide. It is a rectifier diode which means it is made to block reverse voltages (much higher than this circuit) really well. Usually when someone just says diode, they mean a rectifier diode. Pretty much any diode will work equally well in this circuit though. Thanks for watching!
Show schematics pls
There is a way of calculating the frequency of an astable circuit using a chart called a nomograph and cannot find any explanation of how to do this and would love to see a video with a step by step explanation of how to use this chart.
NOT Reset is pin 4
Thanks!
Good video
Thanks for watching!
