555 Astable Operation
Creating Basic Astable multivibrator with 555timer IC
The basic astable oscilator can be designed by fallowing schema

t1=0,693 * (R1+R2). C1
t1=0,693 * (R2). C1
Frequency=1,44 / ((R1+2R2).C1 )
for the circuit trigger itself each timing cycle, the 2nd and 6th pins are connected, there by functioning as an oscillator.
C1 Discharges Through R2 and charges through R1 and R2.
The-Charge on C1 Ranges from 1/3 Vcc to 2/3 Vcc.
T he Oscillation frequency is independent of Vcc.
