Electronics II and Lab
Oscillators
Design a 555 astable multivibrator using 2 resistors - Ra and Rb and a capacitor C, as shown in the circuit shown below. The specifications are: C = 680pF, one of the resistors is 10k?, and a duty cycle of 65%. Calculate all the values in the table, show ALL work.
