NE556N

Description:
The NE556N is a dual version of the 555 timer IC, housed in a 14-pin package. It combines two independent 555 timers into a single chip, making it ideal for applications requiring multiple timing operations. Each timer is capable of producing accurate time delays or oscillation and can be used in monostable (one-shot) or astable (oscillatory) modes.

Key Features:

• Two independent 555 timer circuits in one package
• Wide operating voltage range: 4.5V to 15V
• High output current capability: up to 200 mA per timer
• Adjustable duty cycle
• Timing from microseconds to hours
• Low power consumption
• High temperature stability
• TTL and CMOS compatible
• Internal frequency compensation

Technical Specifications:

• Package Type: PDIP-14
• Supply Voltage Range: 4.5V to 15V
• Operating Temperature Range: 0°C to +70°C
• Output Current: 200 mA (maximum per timer)
• Frequency: Adjustable
• Dimensions: 19.3 mm x 6.35 mm x 4.57 mm
• Weight: 1.7 g

Applications:

• Timing Circuits: Used for generating precise time delays in various applications.
• Oscillators: Can be configured as an oscillator for generating clock pulses.
• Pulse Width Modulation (PWM): Used in PWM circuits for controlling the width of output pulses.
• Sequential Timing: Suitable for applications requiring sequential timing operations.
• Frequency Divider: Can be used to divide frequencies for clock generation.
• LED and Lamp Flashers: Ideal for flashing LEDs and lamps in display systems.
