The 555 timer IC is often used to provide flexible astable oscillators and monostable timers. The IC is also capable of operating as a bistable latch which is used for the following example circuits.
The purpose of this article is to show the 555 timer IC used in its bistable mode as a hysteretic controller. The Threshold input is used to latch the output low while the Trigger input is used to latch the output high. Two example circuits are shown: one is a Low Voltage Disconnect (LVD), while...
