Monostable Multivibrator Using 555 Timer Calculator. The 555 timer is capable of being used in astable and monostable circuits. 4 th pin is the reset pin of 555 timer which is active low so it is connected to vcc to avoid accidental resets.
This calculator is designed to compute for the output pulse width of a 555 timer monostable circuit. It is 555 ic based calculator which takes r and c as inputs and provides pulse width or pulse period or pulse duration tp as output. The circuit above is also called a one shot circuit.
By selecting values for r1 r2 and c we can determine the period frequency and the duty cycle.
The 555 timer is capable of being used in astable and monostable circuits. This is the circuit diagram of 555 timer wired in monostable mode. This means that the output voltage becomes high for a set duration t when a falling edge is detected on pin 2 trigger. The 555 timer above is configured as a monostable circuit.
