  2. 555 timer IC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/555_timer_IC

    The 555 IC has the following operating modes: Astable (free-running) mode – The 555 operates as an electronic oscillator. Applications include: Light emitting diode and lamp flashers, pulse generation, pulse-width modulation (PWM), logic clocks, tone generation, security alarms, pulse-position modulation, etc.

  3. Relaxation oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relaxation_oscillator

    A similar relaxation oscillator can be built with a 555 timer IC (acting in astable mode) that takes the place of the neon bulb above. That is, when a chosen capacitor is charged to a design value, (e.g., 2/3 of the power supply voltage) comparators within the 555 timer flip a transistor switch that gradually discharges that capacitor through a ...

    A vacuum tube Abraham-Bloch multivibrator oscillator, France, 1920 (small box, left).Its harmonics are being used to calibrate a wavemeter (center).. The first multivibrator circuit, the classic astable multivibrator oscillator (also called a plate-coupled multivibrator) was first described by Henri Abraham and Eugene Bloch in Publication 27 of the French Ministère de la Guerre, and in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog-to-digital_converter

    For example, the positive (and/or negative) pulse width from a 555 Timer IC in monostable or astable mode represents the time it takes to charge (and/or discharge) its capacitor from 1 ⁄ 3 V supply to 2 ⁄ 3 V supply. By sending this pulse into a microcontroller with an accurate clock, the duration of the pulse can be measured and converted ...
