5. IC-555 Timer
Introduction
The 555 timer IC was first introduced around 1971 by the Signetics Corporation as the SE555/NE555 and was called the "IC Time Machine". It was the very first, and for a long time, the only commercial timer IC available. It operates in three modes: Astable oscillating, monostable one-shot, and monostable delay-on.
