Hi everyone,
i built a 555 timer RC circuit and connected it to an oscilloscope in order to test the frequency. Why are my practical values slightly more or less that calculated theoretical values? My two resistors and one capacitor each has a tolerance of 10%. Is there another reason (other than tolerance) for the variation between results?
