555 timer

EXPERIMENT

PROBLEM STATEMENT:

We create a 555 timer circuit that you can control the light produce by the LED.

Equipment we used:

555 timer

Potentiometer

1k ohm resistor

10k ohm resistor

20k ohm resistor

20 microfarad capacitor

LED

Breadboard

20k ohm potentiometer

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:

555 timer

In setting our 555 timer, the first thing to do is to determine what will be our time and period. Before assembling it on the breadboard, we familiarize the pin configuration of the 555 timer and the resistors. Since we are already familiar of the pin configuration of the following materials, we assemble these materials in the breadboard. 

 SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM

As we conduct the experiment, as we increase the value of the potentiometer,

the light of the LED will increase depending on the value of the potentiometer.

The Higher the value of the potentiometer, the more light will produce by the LED.

And in this plate, we get to familiarize the use of the 555 timer which we will be used in the future plates in this subject and we will enjoying this because we learned a lot.
