Applications

The TLC555ID is widely used in precision timing circuits, pulse-width modulation (PWM) generators, and oscillator designs in industrial control systems. It suits battery-powered equipment due to its ultra-low CMOS power consumption, and is commonly found in consumer electronics, automotive sensor interfaces, and LED drivers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the TLC555ID and how does it differ from the NE555?

The TLC555ID is Texas Instruments CMOS implementation of the classic 555 timer. Unlike the bipolar NE555, it uses LinCMOS technology for dramatically lower supply current (250uA typical vs 3 to 6mA), operates down to 2V, and is compatible with CMOS/TTL logic levels. It maintains full pin and function compatibility with the standard 555 timer.

What package and pin count does the TLC555ID have?

The TLC555ID comes in an 8-pin SOIC (Small Outline IC) package, indicated by the D suffix. This surface-mount package measures approximately 5mm x 4mm and is RoHS compliant. The 8 pins mirror the standard 555 pinout: GND, Trigger, Output, Reset, Control, Threshold, Discharge, and VCC.

What are the operating temperature and supply voltage ranges of the TLC555ID?

The TLC555ID (industrial grade, I suffix) operates from -40 to +85 degrees Celsius. Supply voltage range is 2V to 15V, making it suitable for 3.3V, 5V, and 12V systems. At 5V the supply current is typically 250uA at 1MHz, far lower than bipolar equivalents.

What are common alternatives or replacements for the TLC555ID?

Direct functional alternatives include the LMC555CMX (Texas Instruments CMOS, SOT-23-5), ICM7555IBA (Renesas CMOS 555), and the TS555IDTTR (STMicroelectronics CMOS 555). For the same SOIC-8 footprint, the LMC555 series is the closest drop-in replacement.

Where can I buy the TLC555ID and what is the minimum order quantity?

The TLC555ID is available on FindMyChip with a minimum order of 1 piece, priced from $0.93 per unit at 1-piece quantity, dropping to $0.77 at 66 pieces and $0.616 at 261 pieces. Submit an RFQ for competitive pricing on larger volumes with global shipping.
