Hacks of Electronics
Hey folks, have you used an ultrasonic sensor in your projects! Do you know how it works? In this project, we will use an ultrasonic sensor without Arduino for object detection. We will interface ultrasonic sensor with a 555 timer to control a DC motor. How ultrasonic sensors work? As the name suggests an ultrasonic […]
Voltage controlled oscillator circuit is an electronic oscillator circuit whose output frequency is controlled by an input voltage source. By varying the input voltage, we can change the output frequency. A voltage controlled oscillator can produce frequencies ranging from few Hertz to tens of Gigahertz. Voltage to frequency converters is used in frequency modulation FM […]
In this project, we will see how to make a triangle wave generator using the 555 timer IC. 555 timer is a very versatile delay and square wave generator IC. It one of the most used ic in electronics projects. You might have used or seen a waveform generator. It is an instrument that can […]
Pulse Width Modulation PWM controller. PWM is a technique in which the amount of current going in a circuit can be controlled by chopping the Direct current using a gate or transistor that is changing its duty cycle (on-off time) you should see this article flashing of LED using 555 IC. This article is about […]
How does the 555 Timer work? NE555 is one of the most popular and widely used ICs of all time. In this blog, we will discuss the working of the 555 timer IC. Overview The 555 Timer was designed by Hans Camenzind in 1971. It can be found in vast variety of electronic devices. 555 […]
In this blog you will see how to make Flashing LED with 555 timer. 555 IC can work in three modes Astable, Monostable, and Bistable, out of which we will be using Astable mode of working. Watch this video to understand better Overview: In astable mode 555 timer continuously oscillates between 0 and 1 ( […]
