Easy One Minute Timer

Today, I'm Gonna show you how to make a one minute timer with very basic things of electronics. It is built around the 555 timer IC.

I hope you will like it.

1. 555 Timer IC

2. 1000uF Capacitor

3. 10k Resistors x 2

4. 47k Resistor

5. Tactile Switch

6. LED

Presented here is the circuit diagram of the 555 timer project.

First of all mount 555 timer IC on Breadboard.

Now, connect pin no. 4 and 8 of the IC.

Connect pin no. 6 and 7 of the IC.

Now, connect a 1000uF Capacitor across pin no. 2 and 6 of the IC.

Then, connect an LED across pin no. 3 and 4 of the IC. Positive Terminal at pin no. 4.

Connect a 10k Resistor across pin no. 2 and 4.

Connect a series of 10k Resistor and 47k Resistor across pin no. 7 and 4.

Now, place a tactile switch across pin no. 1 and 2. Use it as a trigger.
