The 555 IC is a universal timer circuit. Via the addition of external components (resistors, capacitors) the designer can generate various timing waveforms.
555 is an arbitrarily assigned part number for a general purpose programmable timer IC. The number itself has no special meaning.
There is no Calculus function like ic 4808. Kindly check your question again.
this IC is used as a regulated power supply A: DEFINITELY not it is an hex Schmidt trigger inverter function is Y=A inverter
555 + 555 = 1110
555 + 555 = 1110
the capacitor and its associated resistor set the time constant.
The 555 IC timer does not have a clock.
555 is an arbitrarily assigned part number for a general purpose programmable timer IC. The number itself has no special meaning.
556 is a dual version of 555 single timer.
The 555 is a timer, not a counter.
555 timer is used to generate clock signals in the ic 555 timer the pin no 8 is represents vcc
just conect gnd to the vcc
yes
To bypass Resistor Rb to get less than 50% duty cycle.

A 556 IC is a dual 555 IC in one 14pin chip. With that said it composed of two timers capable of running in Astable, Bistable and Monostable modes. The 556 can be used as a function generator once the appropriate external components are connected. One note about using the 556/555 as a function generator is that you cannot achieve a perfect 50/50% duty cycle where the time on is equal to the time off, this is due the characteristics of the internal components having a different charge/discharge rates.
