555

Do you mean:

• the number 555 (math), or
• the 555 timer IC used in electronics?

If you want math:

• Prime factorization: 555 = 3 × 5 × 37
• Divisors: 1, 3, 5, 15, 37, 111, 185, 555 (8 divisors)
• It’s a Harshad number in base 10 (sum of digits = 15; 555 ÷ 15 = 37)
• Roman numeral: DLV
• Binary: 555 = 1000101011₂

If you want the 555 timer IC:

• It’s an 8-pin IC with modes: astable (oscillator), monostable (one-shot), bistable (latch)
• Pinout (typical): 1 GND, 2 Trigger, 3 Output, 4 Reset, 5 Control Voltage, 6 Threshold, 7 Discharge, 8 VCC
• Common formulas:
  • Astable frequency: f = 1.44 / [(RA + 2RB) × C]
  • Duty cycle: D = (RA + RB) / (RA + 2RB)
  • Monostable pulse width: T ≈ 1.1 × R × C (R is the timing resistor, C the timing capacitor)
• Quick tips: use a small capacitor on control pin5 (0.01 µF) for stability; reset pin4 should be tied high to enable operation; you can tailor duty cycle in astable with RA and RB.
