Experiment 4 1.0 Topic: Jabatan Kejuruteraan Elektrik

This experiment aims to connect an astable mode circuit using a 555 timer chip to generate continuous output pulse waveforms. The circuit uses resistor and capacitor components connected to the 555 timer pins to create high and low pulse times based on calculations. Students will build the circuit, observe input and output waveforms on an oscilloscope, and calculate pulse times and duty cycle percentages. Measurements will be recorded for different resistor values to analyze output waveform variations.

EXPERIMENT 4 1.0 2.0 2.1 2.2 3.0 TOPIC 555 TIMER (ASTABLE MULTIVIBRATOR) OBJECTIVE At the end of this experiment, students should be able to:connect the astable mode circuit using 555 timer. generate the output pulse waveform THEORY Astable multivibrator has no stable state. It is free running pulse generator (continuous operation without positive trigger). For this type of multivibrator, the output calculation is given by:
