The NE555 Timers/Clock Oscillators ROHS manufactured by IDCHIP with SOP-8 is a low power CMOS timer that incorporates a modern CMOS structure with an improved bi-stable performance along with superior current-to-voltage and voltage-to-current conversion capabilities. This timer’s unique benefits are its monostable and astable operation, low power consumption, and wide choice of time-delay and pulse width outputs. This timer is used for wide range of applications such as adjustable pulse generation for microcomputer logic and analog circuitry, signal processing and communication circuits, timing signal control, and timing control for power conversion and regulation. The part is RoHS compliant and is offered in an 8-pin SOP-8 package.
