Working Principles

The LM555CMMX/NOPB is based on the classic 555 timer IC design. It consists of comparators, flip-flops, and a discharge transistor. The timing control is achieved by charging and discharging an external timing capacitor through an internal resistor network.

In monostable mode, a trigger signal initiates the timing cycle, producing a single pulse with a duration determined by the timing resistor and capacitor values. In astable mode, the IC continuously generates square wave signals with adjustable frequency and duty cycle.
