Building a Wailing Siren Circuit using a 555 Timer IC If you are an electronics hobbyist then you must have heard about the 555 timer IC and its 3 popular circuits viz. astable multivibrator, bistable multivibrator, and monostable multivibrator. Apart from these, there are other popular circuits like 555 timer IC as a switch and police hooter that we have talked about previously. Adding to the list,… |

Building a 555-Timer based Police Siren Circuit Upon hearing a siren of a nearby police vehicle, one might think about how this tone is being generated. You’ll be surprised to know that the brains behind these tones are not a microcontroller but a humble NE555 timer IC. If you know a little about electronics then you must have heard of 555-timer IC and its 3 very popular circuits the astable multivibrator, the… |

Astable Multivibrator Circuit Using Op-amp The multivibrator circuit is very popular and useful in the field of electronics, and it’s the most basic circuit that you will know about while learning basic electronics. The multivibrator circuit can be divided into two categories: the first one is known as the monostable multivibrator, and the second one is known as the astable multivibrator. But in this project, we will… |

AC Lights Flashing and Blink Control Circuit Using 555 Timer and TRIAC Sometimes, we might need an AC bulb flasher circuit that can blink a series of bulbs in a particular time interval for decorative purposes. By controlling the flashing time interval and sequence, we can make a series of bulbs look beautiful for outdoor decoration in Cafeteria, Restaurants, etc. or even used it for heavy Christmas light decoration, so here I have shared a… |

Positive and Negative Charge Pump Circuit In a previous article, I have shown you how you can build your own switched capacitor voltage converter circuit using the classic industry-standard LMC7660 IC. But oftentimes there are situations when you don't have a specific IC available or the cost of an additional IC is ruining the harmony of your BOM. And this is where our beloved 555 timer IC comes to rescue. That is… |

Simple Curve Tracer Circuit: Tracing the Curve for Resistor, Diode and Transistor Most of electronics deals with Tracing Curves, be it the characteristic transfer curve for a feedback loop, a resistor’s straight VI line or a transistor’s collector voltage versus current curve. These curves give us an intuitive understanding of how a device behaves in a circuit. An analytical approach might involve plugging in discrete… |

555 Timer Astable Multivibrator Circuit Astable Multivibrator mode of 555 timer IC is also called Free running or self-triggering mode. Unlike Monostable Multivibrator mode it doesn’t have any stable state, it has two quasi stable state (HIGH and LOW). No external triggering is required in Astable mode, it automatically interchange its two states on a particular interval, hence generates a rectangular waveform.… |
