LM555CMX

Texas Instruments · Timers / Counters · SOIC-8

LM555CMX from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 GND power_in Ground reference voltage.
2 Trigger input Triggers flip-flop when voltage falls below 1/3 VCC; trigger current range 0.5 to 0.9 μA.
3 Output output Output driven waveform capable of sourcing or sinking up to 200 mA.
4 Reset input Resets timer with negative pulse of 0.4 to 1 V; must connect to VCC to prevent false triggering.
5 Control Voltage input Controls threshold and trigger levels to determine output pulse width.
6 Threshold input Compares voltage with 2/3 VCC reference to set flip-flop state.
7 Discharge tri_state Open collector output that discharges capacitor when voltage reaches 2/3 of supply.
8 V+ power_in Supply voltage in range 4.5 V to 16 V; provides operating power to device.
