I've discovered that the max voltage for a device isn't always so. Sometimes
an i.c. is sensitive to over-voltage, but not always. I like linear circuits, use
the 555 frequently, and it seems it is not sensitive to supply voltage. I'll post
the circuit I am working with:
My question is, can I use this at 32volts, or is their a substitute that will work? I know that I can isolate
the drive from the Mosfet switching side, but apart from that as a solution, is there a device replacement for
the NE555 that I can reliably use at 32v? This schematic, as-built, does not immediately go to smoke at 32v,
but I know I am pushing the envelop with regards to reliability.
