The projects shows you how to build simple low cost Inductance Meter based on popular IC 555. The 555 works in its most simple rectangle oscillation configuration. In this mode, the duty-cycle should be around 50%, but this depends on the load on pin 3. Over the amplifying transistor Q1 the AC is given [...]

The purpose of the project is to build a simple charge controller for solar and wind systems based on IC NE555 Timer. Michael Davis, the designer, decides to use IC 555 instead of MCU because he worried that the microcontrollers would be too expensive or difficult to obtain in some parts of the world, [...]

The project shows you how to build simple Aquarium Feeding Timer. Instead using microcontroller, it uses famous IC 555. It is very useful for Automatic aquarium feeding DIY-er who don’t know MCU programming. The circuit uses simple monostable 555 circuit. It control Load relay (return pump). The timing period can be adjusted by turning the [...]

Daniel designs this Metronome with a few simple electronic components.The Metronome is any device that produces a regulated audible and/or visual pulse, usually used to establish a steady beat, or tempo, measured in beats-per-minute (BPM) for the performance of musical compositions. It is an invaluable practice tool for musicians that goes back hundreds of years.
