This is an example of wiring a 555 Timer Chip to create an RC Relaxation Oscillator, creating a DC square wave as output. The LED blinks, showing the frequency of the wave.

The other chip to the left side is a dual JK Flip-Flop that I haven't gotten working yet. Just ignore that for now.

The schematic for this is available at: http://www.falstad.com/circuit/e-555square.html
