Product Overview

NE555DR is a Texas Instruments precision timer IC in the Signal_Chain category. The device supports astable or monostable operation, adjustable duty cycle, and timing ranges from microseconds to hours, making it suitable for pulse, delay, oscillator, and interval timing functions derived from those operating modes.

For the D (SOIC, 8) package, the pinout assigns GND to pin 1, TRIG to pin 2, OUT to pin 3, RESET to pin 4, CONT to pin 5, THRES to pin 6, DISCH to pin 7, and VCC to pin 8. The non-SE555 VCC pin description specifies a 4.5 V to 16 V input supply range, while the datasheet description lists 5 V to 15 V operation.

Key electrical limits include 18 V absolute maximum supply voltage, input voltage up to VCC on CONT, RESET, THRES, and TRIG, and ±225 mA absolute maximum output current. Recommended operation supports ±200 mA output current and 0°C to 70°C free-air temperature for NE555 devices.

Key Features

  • Astable or monostable timer operation
  • Timing range from microseconds to hours
  • Adjustable duty cycle for timing waveforms
  • Output can sink or source up to 200 mA

Procurement Notes

When requesting a quote for NE555DR, buyers should confirm the manufacturer, package or case, required quantity, target date code, compliance documents, packing method, destination country and expected delivery schedule.

If alternatives are acceptable, buyers should share the approved vendor list, required electrical or optical limits, package constraints and qualification requirements. Any alternative part should be reviewed by the buyer's engineering team before production use.

For analog and signal-chain sourcing, supply voltage, bandwidth, accuracy, noise level, package, temperature grade, input/output configuration and qualification requirements should be verified before approval.
