Bistable Multivibrator using an IC 555 Timer

Stable states: Two stable states

Working idea:

• Press Trigger (S₁) —> Output goes high

• Press Reset (S₂) —> Output goes low

• Output remains in that state until next input (bistable

behavior).

• No press —> Holds state

Experimental Demonstration of Capacitor Charging and Discharging Current Waveforms

The charging and discharging currents of a capacitor are exponential waveforms. The charging current decreases from its maximum value to zero, while discharging current flows in the opposite direction and decreases to zero.

Charging —> Positive exponential decay (V/R to 0)

Discharging —> Negative exponential decay (- V_o/R to 0)
