8.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure

To allow the LED to flash on for a noticeable amount of time, a 5-second time delay was chosen for this application. Using Equation 6, R × C equals 4.545.

If R is chosen as 100 kΩ, C = 45.4 µF. The values of R = 100 kΩ and C = 47 µF were chosen based on standard values of resistors and capacitors.

A momentary push button switch connected to ground is connected to the trigger input with a 10-kΩ current limiting resistor pull up to the supply voltage. When the push button is pressed, the TRIGGER pin goes to GND. An LED is connected to the OUTPUT pin with a current limiting resistor in series from the output of the LMC555 to GND. The RESET pin is not used and was connected to the supply voltage.
