Product Summary

The LM555CN is a highly stable device for generating accurate time delays or oscillation. Additional terminals are provided for triggering or resetting if desired. In the time delay mode of operation, the time of LM555CN is precisely controlled by one external resistor and capacitor. For astable operation as an oscillator, the free running frequency and duty cycle are accurately controlled with two external resistors and one capacitor. The circuit of LM555CN may be triggered and reset on falling waveforms, and the output circuit can source or sink up to 200mA or drive TTL circuits.
