Eee204 Exp 05

The document describes designing and studying an astable multivibrator circuit using a 555 timer integrated circuit to produce an oscillation frequency of 10 kHz. The objective is to create an astable multivibrator circuit that oscillates continuously between two states without external triggering. The circuit consists of two switching transistors, a cross-coupled feedback network, and two time delay capacitors. Calculations show the designed circuit produces an oscillation frequency of 10 kHz as desired.

Experiment Title: Design and Study of an Astable Multi-vibrator circuit
using 555 timer integrated circuit for a frequency of oscillation of 10
KHz.

OBJECTIVE:
To design and Study of an Astable Multi-vibrator circuit using 555 timer
integrated circuit for a frequency of oscillation of 10 KHz.

THEORY:
Astable Multivibrators are the most commonly used type of relaxation oscillator
because not only are they simple, reliable and ease of construction they also
produce a constant square wave output waveform. Unlike the Monostable
Multivibrator or the Bistable Multivibrator, the Astable Multivibrator has
automatic built in triggering which switches it continuously between its two
unstable states both set and reset.

The Astable Multivibrator is another type of cross-coupled transistor switching


circuit that has NO stable output states as it changes from one state to the other all
the time. The astable circuit consists of two switching transistors, a cross-coupled
feedback network, and two-time delay capacitors which allow oscillation between
the two states with no external triggering to produce the change in state.
In electronic circuits, astable multivibrators are also known as Free-running
Multivibrator as they do not require any additional inputs or external assistance to
oscillate. Astable oscillators produce a continuous square wave from its output or
outputs, (two outputs no inputs) which can then be used to flash lights or produce a
sound in a loudspeaker.

APPARATUS:
• Breadboard,
• 555 Timer IC
• Resistors,
• Capacitors
• Power supply,
• Multimeter,
• Oscilloscope.
