There is nary a microcontroller to be found on this circuit sculpture, which uses a pair of astable multivibrator(s) to light two sets of LEDs that represent air being inhaled and exhaled.

But plenty of other products in common use rely on a bit of programmability to gain extra features and functionality. The personal astable multivibrator is one popular product with a long pedigree, ...

It’s not the worst transgression, but it stems from our discomfort with analog circuits. Luckily, [Ray] published an illustrated guide on building multivibrator circuits. This is a simple method ...

As with many inventions, two people had the idea for an integrated circuit at almost the same time. Transistors had become commonplace in everything from radios to phones to computers, and now ...

When TV shows and movies need to use a phone number as part of the story, they typically use one that starts with 555. We spoke with an official historian at AT&T to find out why these three ...

Designers can make useful products that include electrical components close electrical componentA device in an electric circuit, such as a battery, switch or lamp.. They allow a product to have ...

Stars from high-profile entries like “Baby Reindeer,” “Fargo,” “True Detective: Night Country” and more are in the running for this year’s Emmy race in best limited series… ...
