The 555 Timer Explained
This lesson explains all aspects of the 555 timer, how its used, its operating modes, and everything is traced back to the transistor level. It also features a video in which a 555 timer is built completely from scratch, starting from the ground up to build intuitive understanding of the most versatile IC in the world.
RC Time Circuits Explained
This lesson is a deep-dive into the equations that govern RC circuit timing. Formulas such as the time constant and charging equation are derived through integration and calculus concepts to gain a more intuitive understanding of RC circuit theory. The lesson compares mathematical ideas to real world circuits analysis and also includes a video with animation to help viewers grasp the theory.
