We have ✅ 44 available of the SF-COM-16473 in our Sydney warehouse. An extra 112 units available with a short lead time.
The classic 555 timer/oscillator IC from Texas Instruments — one of the most versatile and widely used integrated circuits in electronics. With just a few external resistors and capacitors, it can generate timing delays from microseconds to hours, produce square wave oscillations, and drive LEDs, buzzers, or relays directly from its output.
Key Features
