Multivibrators and 555 Timer - Technical MCQs

Q1:

To obtain a 50% duty cycle in an astable 555 timer circuit:

A tLO = tHI

B RA = RB and short RB with a diode during the capacitor charging cycle

C capacitor voltage must rise above 1/3 VCC

D tLO = tHIRA = RB, and short RB with a diode during the capacitor charging cycle

ANS:A - tLO = tHI
