did you try it ??I don't see anything wrong with the circuit
I don't know why it's not working in your simulation

Where did you find that circuit? Can you share links ?I don't see anything wrong with the circuit

If you have time, Can you please add RC on your trig and dis pins and see what happens..it will be a big favour. Only if you have timeI designed it and yes it works.
You can mail me as well. <SNIP>Sure
Just completed and it works as described. R1 = 1M, C3 = 10uf..... shuts off after 11 secondsCan you please add RC on your trig and dis pins and see what happens
Thank you so much.Just completed and it works as described. R1 = 1M, C3 = 10uf..... shuts off after 11 seconds
you will see my id on my circuit. renamed it and battery is also named as my id https://www.multisim.com/content/uGjVW7HiACX9TKujNtZDrG/sahilsiwatch07gmailcom/open/Just completed and it works as described. R1 = 1M, C3 = 10uf..... shuts off after 11 seconds
You can try this.I am new to working on 555 timer. I am running it in monostable mode. I am triggering it using a button on trigger pin. It works just fine. What I want is the LED connected to the out pin 3 to switch off when I press the trigger button again. If I don't press the button, LED will switch off after the specified time duration by the RC circuit. Is it possible? Thanks in advance.![]()

I used the simulator link you sent me and corrected the schematic as needed. Set R1 at 100K.... C3 at 5uf.....C1 at 1uf....R3 at 100K.you will see my id on my circuit. renamed it and battery is also named as my id
Okay. Thanks for your helpI used the simulator link you sent me and corrected the schematic as needed. Set R1 at 100K.... C3 at 5uf.....C1 at 1uf....R3 at 100K.
LED turns on with switch and shuts off after several seconds. That's working correctly.
When the switch is pushed a second time the LED shuts off but comes right back on when the switch is released.
That is not what's happening in the actual circuit. The simulator is not accurate in this detail.
When the switch is pressed a second time the voltages on the RST and TRI pins during simulation are correct but the output is not responding correctly on the simulator.
Thanks for the design. I will try this probably
I tried the circuit today. Same as we discussed earlier. It's not working. Only thing that was different was the MOSFET. I used IRF540 instead of 2N7000. Could it be anything wrong about the MOSFETs? I checked the gate threshold voltage. Seems okay.Yes.
When I click on the link you posted in #49 the changes I made are there.

breadboardYou tried it on the simulation or did you actually breadboard the circuit?
It works same as in the simulation. Monostable is starting but the second button push doesn't switch the LED off.What exactly doesn't work?
