LMC555CMMX from Texas Instruments, in a VSSOP-8-0.65mm. 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 (0 V) for the device. Connect to the negative supply rail. |
| 2 | TRIG | input | Trigger input. A negative pulse below 1/3 V+ on this pin sets the internal flip-flop, driving OUT high and starting the timing cycle. |
| 3 | OUT | output | Push-pull timer output. Swings between GND and V+ and can source or sink load current (typ. up to ~50 mA at V+ = 15 V). |
| 4 | RESET | input | Active-low reset. Pulling below ~0.7 V forces OUT low and discharges the timing capacitor regardless of TRIG. Tie to V+ when unused. |
| 5 | CONT | input | Control voltage. Provides access to the internal 2/3 V+ threshold reference; can be driven externally to modulate timing or pulse width. Typically bypassed to GND via a 10 nF capacitor when unused. |
| 6 | THRES | input | Threshold input. When the voltage on this pin exceeds 2/3 V+, the internal flip-flop is reset, driving OUT low and turning on the discharge transistor. |
| 7 | DISCH | output | Discharge. Open-drain output from an internal N-channel MOSFET; used to discharge the external timing capacitor when OUT is low. |
| 8 | V+ | power_in | Positive supply voltage, 1.5 V to 15 V. Bypass to GND with a 100 nF ceramic capacitor placed close to the pin. |

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:
| File | Size | Use it when |
|---|---|---|

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 479 faces against 147 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
