Texas Instruments NE555P Single Precision Timer (Pack of 10)

I only needed one for a simple CW practice oscillator - so, bought 10. Having fun with other projects, sure brings back memories!

A generous number of these handy timers--good quality chips which function as specified

Works astable at 90 kHz and will drive a 40 mA load (in my application). Appears to be OEM TI and not a knockoff.

Nothing to dislike! Extremely versatile. My most humorous use was a cricket sounder placed in our school office manager’s work chair, up in the bottom where the stand meets the seat. It beeped every 10 minutes all day Thursday and Friday. Susan, the manager disassembled her typewriter and pronounced the problem cured, and left for the school weekend retreat at Big Bear Lake. I, being me, got into the lady’s cabin and planted the cricket in one of the easy chairs. While we dropped in to say hello, it beeped and gals almost got a whiplash….looking toward the chair. We left for dinner, but, later that evening there was a cricket in our cabin! Go figure! Enjoy the many uses of the NE 555 NOTE; NOT 100% INTERCHANGEABLE WITH THE CMOS 555. MIKE

Some of the best 555 timers on the market highly recommended

They work as expected. My only problem with them is the feet are too wide for my breadboard. I have to bend them in slightly the 1st time I use one. They fit snugly.

Need timers for illumination projects, much lower cost per piece.

Time, time, time See what's become of me While I looked around for my possibilities I was so hard to please Look around Leaves are brown And the sky is a hazy shade of winter Hear the Salvation Army band Down by the riverside There's bound to be a better ride Than what you've got planned Carry a cup in your hand Look around Leaves are brown And the sky is a hazy shade of winter Hang on to your hopes, my friend That's an easy thing to say But if your hopes should pass away Simply pretend that you can build them again Look around The grass is high The fields are ripe It's the springtime of my life Seasons change with the scenery Weavin' time in a tapestry Won't you stop and remember me? Look around Leaves are brown And the sky is a hazy shade of winter Look around Leaves are brown There's a patch of snow on the ground

Extremely fast shipping and products work great! Came in a nice strong package

Arrived as advertised.

I don't know if this device is a true Texas Instrument device. It has a vague TI logo printed on it and googled the part number and got nothing. Have yet to use it in any of my projects.

Texas Instrument NE555P Single by Texas instruments The first one I soldered in was dead. The second one worked. I tested the rest by plugging them into an existing project with a socket and they seemed ok but when soldered in on my next project which used two 555s the first chip worked for a few cycles and then its internal discharge circuit shorted out. The second 555 in that project shorted internally and never worked at all. In contrast I desoldered two 30 year old (or older) Motorola 555s out of two other projects and soldered them into this new project and they work fine and these ICs have moved to and from multiple projects over the years.
