555 TESTER CIRCUIT

The NE 555 timer IC is a 8 p[in dip package IC which performs variety of timing tasks in the electronic
circuits. There is a huge lists of 555 IC circuits or projects due to which it is very useful to check 555
timer ICs. In this circuit the NE 555 IC is wired as an astable multivibrator and when power is applied
the LEDs will start flashing which will show that the ic is working. The flashing rate of LEDs can be
controlled by increase or decreasing the valued of R1 and R2 resistors.
