555 Projects

A few weeks back I added a few more pages related to the 555 timer. One circuit uses additional passive components to compensate for the tolerance of the external capacitor; 555 Timer Tolerance Compensation. The second page covers a Reducing Frequency 555 Oscillator. Both circuits are connected as Astable Multivibrator circuits.

Both pages were added to the engineering site map, but it does not appear that either page ever made it to this blog. I only noticed because both of those 555 pages have only received 2 visits in the last two months. It's almost like neither page has been index by Google? However I think the pages were only added 3 weeks ago.


For what ever reason my computer is slowing down to a crawl so I'll end this post and re-boot. Although I think the connection with the internet is going south. But I don't really want to reset the modem because a few of the open pages won't like it, including this blog as it auto saves about once a minute.

-- Ok that work, must have just been a memory leak.
