That board will not pas the vibration tests.

Simplest way would be pile up 555 chips and make a stairs..

With a logarithmic voltage to frequency response the frequency @ 5V would be high enough to look as steady on.

No problem. 554 microcontrollers and one NE555. Makes 555 chips in total :-)

Sorry, I forgot about the "etc..", i.e. linear response below 5V. So just add a comparator which pulls down the cathode of the LED when the voltage is above 5V.

Yeah, that would work. But if I really had to do this, then I think Jan has it right... use a uC.

How about...

LM555-RateVsVolts.png

on the S.E.D/Schematics page of my website?

Features constant time high, variable period.

I leave it to others to embellish the control curve, current mirror and TC to suit their application. ...Jim Thompson

If you had a shop, and were selling components, that would be a good project to put in your 'newsletter'.

That would work better with the resistors in the drains, instead of the sources.

This might work:

where the 555 provides the hysteresis (accurately of course >:-}

There's no LED!

And he wants solid ON at +5 in.

I presume the OP will know how to connect an LED to the 555 output ??

The "solid ON" is left as an exercise for the student >:-}

It _is_ a bit trivial to place "solid ON" at any desired _exact_ voltage. ...Jim Thompson
