Hello. I'm building a re-triggerable one-shot watchdog circuit using a 555 timer. I've got it working perfectly now. Except for one thing. When I run the sim,. the 555 outputs 5v on Output pin #3. Vcc is +5v. According to the 555 datasheet, shouldn't the output be 2/3 of Vcc? I'm new to 555 so I could easily have something wrong here. https://www.circuitlab.com/editor/#?id=mpv9czyt25u6 Thanks, -Hank |

Nevermind. Looks like I can use a CMOS rail-to-rail 555 timer to get ~5v output. |
