 1- INTRODUCTION
In the following explanation about the basic circuit CI555 for this it is necessary
to have basic knowledge of electronics.
In this report you will find and include a short theoretical introduction, a step-by-
step guide, and some demonstration images of the components.
In order to internalize what we will be working on throughout the report, it is
necessary to know in a simple and clear screenshot what the IC 555 timer
means, it is an 8-terminal integrated circuit (chip) that is used to generate time
intervals. Although it is mainly used as a timer to activate or deactivate a circuit
or electronic component, we can also use it as a pulse generator, multivibrator,
alarm, digital switch, among other more specific applications.

THE PARTS OF THIS INTEGRATED ARE:

PIN 1: Called EARTH is the negative pin
of the power supply, generally ground
(ground).
PIN 2: Designated as TRIGGER TRIP,
this triggering process occurs when this
pin has less than 1/3 of the supply
voltage.
PIN 3: Called OUTPUT, here we will see
the result of the timer operation, whether
it is connected as monostable or
astable.
PIN 4: Assigned as RESET, if set to a
level below 0.7 Volts, it sets the output
to a low level. If for some reason this pin
is not used, it must be connected to the
positive of the circuit to prevent the timer from being reset.
PIN 5: Called as VOLTAGE CONTROL, it serves to:
modify the reference voltage of the comparators, and thus be able to modify the
threshold and trigger voltage, modify the output waveform.

If this terminal is not used, a 10nf capacitor is installed to avoid interference.

PIN 6: Called THRESHOLD, it is the input to an internal comparator that is used
to put the output of the circuit at a low level.

PIN 7: Called DISCHARGE, it is used to effectively discharge the external

capacitor that is placed to perform the timing of the circuit.
PIN 8: Assigned SUPPLY VOLTAGE (VCC), it is the terminal where the positive
supply voltage is connected, ranging from 5 V to 15 V.

This tone generator circuit controlled by an IC 555 integrated (working as
a clock) varies according to the values of the applied resistances, resulting
in two tones of different frequencies.

LIST OF ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS

Pushbutton or Switch S1

A switch has the ability to open a circuit with a connected load, that is, when
you disconnect a load at the time of doing so, you generate an electric arc and
a switch has the ability to extinguish that arc through an arcing chamber either
by means of a series of blades, the characteristic that they only conduct when
they are pressed, these are called normally open and there are others that stop
conducting when they are pressed, these are called normally closed.
These have the ability to interrupt the passage of a current with a very small
load since they generally do not cause electric arcs and when they control large
loads they are connected in an arrangement by means of relays, whether
digital, solid state, or electromagnetic, it is that is, these arrangements are wired
so that the control part handles little voltage and / or current and the force part
controls a very large voltage and / or currents, as I mention these devices do
not have or rarely have an arcing chamber for which can only control very small
loads of few amps and / or volts.
This switch, when activated, generates a bridge through which the current
passes, otherwise, the current does not connect with the other resistors

NPN Bipolar Junction Transistor 2N3904

The transistor is a semiconductor electronic device that acts as an amplifier,

oscillator, switch or rectifier.
In this case it will act as an oscillator. When voltage and current are applied to
one of its leads, the transistor can control the current that passes through the
other two leads.

0.1 uF Ceramic Capacitor

0.1uF capacitors are useful to improve the voltage stability of a circuit, as it

prevents spikes and electrical noise that voltage sources can generate. Code
104 means that the capacitance value of this component is 10x10 ^ 4 pF, that
is, 100nF, or 0.1uF.

In our circuit it stores energy, the charge is directly proportional to the potential
difference.

9 volt battery (power supply)

The 9 volt battery (or 9V battery) is a nine volt electrical battery. It is regularly
called a transistor battery due to its great use in the first transistor radios. The
battery has the shape of a rectangular prism with rounded edges with a
connector that has two terminals, one positive and one negative, on one of its
sides.
The 9V battery is commonly used in smoke detectors, self-contained carbon
monoxide detectors, effects pedals, electro-acoustic guitars, and model airplane
controls. They are also used as a secondary power source for certain electronic
watches.
This battery format is mainly based on alkaline, zinc-carbon, lithium-iron
chemistry and, in rechargeable form, nickel cadmium (NiCd), nickel-metal
hydride (NiMH) and lithium ion. Mercury-based 9V batteries are no longer
manufactured today for environmental reasons.

Conclusions

✓ The resistors are added in parallel.

✓ The switch acts as a bridge through which current can pass
✓ The 555 IC produces waves that depend on resistance
✓ The sound frequency (without pressing the switch) generates a high-
pitched sound.
✓ The sound frequency (by pressing the switch) generates a bass sound.
✓ The higher the frequency, the higher the sound height
✓ The switch makes resistor R470k in parallel with R120k, causing the
audio signal to change.
✓ The more current, the more frequency
✓ The transistor can control the current that passes through two leads
when voltage and current are applied to the other lead.

As we see below, applying the detailed components, we can obtain a simulation

of the circuit made in LiveWire, which results in a diagram that is easy to read
and understand with the naked eye.
