Project 3
Build an Astable Multivibrator
Purpose



The purpose of this project is to build an Astable
multivibrator without the 555-timer chip.
This means you will have to assemble your own
components to mimic the behavior of the inside of the
chip.
You will create a PSpice simulation and a working
circuit.
You will then modify the 555 timer chip model so
that it cycles over a different part of the capacitor
charge curve.
You will modify your PSpice simulation and circuit to
demonstrate that your new model works as predicted.

Circuits are often represented by block diagrams that show the flow of
the signal between different functional blocks.
Above is a block diagram of the astable multivibrator.

How does the Astable Multivibrator work?
Ton  0.693( R1  R2)C1
Toff  0.693( R 2)C1
These equations determine
the characteristics of your
output pulses based on the
values you choose for R1, R2
and C1.

How does the Astable Multivibrator work?

The frequency of the pulses and their duty cycle are
dependent upon the RC network values.
 The capacitor C charges through the series resistors R1
and R2 with a time constant of
tON = (R1 + R2)C1.

The capacitor discharges
through R2 with a time
constant of tOFF = R2C1
November 2006
Electronic Instrumentation
12
Where do the equations come from?
The equations that determine the on and off time of the output
pulses are based on the charge and discharge time of the
capacitor. The capacitor equations are:

signals at the input and output of each block
in the diagram.

times
• high and low on digital signals
• important points on analog signals (like 1/3 and
2/3 of Vcc)
• on and off time of the pulses
