A circuit shown below is a 555 monostable circuit. Normally a 9 volt battery would be connected but this circuit is powered by a transformer. The circuit has be drawn on 'Crocodile Technology 3D' software and then animated (using graphics/animation software). A circuit can be drawn with this software and tested on screen. Furthermore, it can be seen in three dimensions and rotated into almost any position. |
