I have been going about this a lot of different ways. I was trying to convert a low voltage DC to AC without an xformer. Y`all convinced me to get a wall wort (wart?) Which I did. Of course I think that I finally got a circuit to work. It is this one minus the xformer and transistors. The RC combo yields 60Hz from pin 10. Which I then hopefully ran through an LC combo of
470 uh and 1 uf. Amazingly it produced 60Hz and even more remarkably, it read 4.25v on my AC meter
Then on to the 555 attempt and I dont know why it is not generating AC. The RC combo puts out a frequency of 82Hz at pin 3. Would there be a difference between the 2 waveforms so as to prevent it from working like the 4047 does ?
I don't have a scope yet so I can't take a peek.
