The NE556 is a dual 555 timer IC in a single 14-pin DIP package, providing two independent timing circuits. Each timer operates identically to the standard NE555, supporting astable, monostable, and bistable modes.
Ideal for projects requiring two timing circuits while saving board space compared to using two separate 555 timer ICs.
Key Features
- Dual 555 Timer – Two independent timers in one IC
- Through-Hole DIP Package – 14-pin, breadboard and PCB friendly
- Multiple Modes – Astable, monostable, and bistable operation
Specifications
- IC: NE556
- Package: DIP-14 (DIL)
- Mount Type: Through-hole
- Pin Count: 14
- Case Colour: Black
Ideal For
- Oscillator and pulse generator circuits
- Time delay and sequential timing projects
- Electronics education and breadboard prototyping
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- PCB
- A printed circuit board is a rigid board with copper tracks that connect electronic parts without loose wires. For this kit, the PCBs also form the airplane shape, so they are both the circuit base and part of the finished model.
