The frequency formula of 555 oscillator is popularly known. For a known resistors and capacitor, the frequency can be determined by a formula. From the math logic, if the frequency and the resistors are known, then an unknown capacitor could be determined by the inverse of the formula. Anyone who has a frequency counter are [...]

Pulse width modulator produce a PWM signal, a pulse with a constant frequency but with the duty cycle vary according to a modulating signal. Here is the schematic diagram of pulse width modulator circuit using 555 IC as the active component: This pulse width modulator circuit need external pulse train input to trigger [...]
In this video tutorial, you can learn how to make a LED flasher circuit using 555 IC. The project uses a breadboard, so you don’t need any soldering work. A good start for do it yourself (DIY) project. [Video tutorial source: Youtube.Com]

Sawtooth wave oscillator circuit can be implemented using several methods, here we present one design that employs 555 IC. Here is the schematic diagram of the circuit: The core of the circuit uses general 555 oscillator configuration, but instead of using a fixed resistor to limit the current for charging the capacitor, we [...]

This audio frequency meter uses 555 IC as a monostable multivibrator (one-shoot trigger). A monostable multivibrator can act as a frequency-to-voltage converter because it produce a fixed pulse width, with the repetition rate/density is proportional to the triggering input frequency. Here is the circuit’s schematic diagram: For resistor R1, because it set the [...]
