Experiment 9
Aim: To Design Monostable multivibrator using 555 Timer.

Objective: After successfully completion of this experiment student will be able to

understand...

1. How to carry out hands on experimentation related to designing of monostable

multivibrator using 555 Timer.
2. Analysis of effect RC time constant on On Time of output waveform.

Apparatus:

 Analog Discovery Board

 PC/Laptop with Waveforms and GNU plot Installed
 Bread board
 LM741/op07, 1/4 watt discrete resistors, Electrolytic Capacitors
 Connecting wires

Procedure:

 Connect circuit on bread board as shown in circuit schematic.

 Connect Analog Discovery with Circuit as Shown in Circuit Schematic
 Plug in Analog Discovery USB cable to PC/Laptop and start waveform software.
 Make necessary setting for function generator and oscilloscope as per
requirements of experiments.
 Take necessary measurements and save these as data file (*.txt) and image
(*.png/*.jpg) for further analysis.
 Using GNU plot carryout necessary analysis and generate required plot /
graphs as per requirements of experimentation.
 Maintain record of collected results in soft format as per requirements of
experiment for future use.
 Finally conclude the experiment.

a. Setup for monostable multivibrator using 555 timer

Note:

 Take all necessary safety precaution while performing Experiments (WORK

MUST, SAFETY FIRST).
 Handle issued material with care.
 Return Issued material to lab instructor after completion of experiment.
 Maintain record of collected results in soft format as per requirements of
experiment for future use.
 Take authentication of lab instructor by means of signature on record book
after completion of experiment within one week.
