555 Functionality isn't all that complex... two comparators plus an R-S flip-flop. ...Jim Thompson

But you would have to cast them all in aluminum to achieve nearly the = same thermal properties.
?-?
Better to put an actual 555 inside. The resulting infinite regress will keep 555 enthusiasts permanently busy, if not employed.

I want an espresso maker that looks like a 74123.

I once made a tie pin out of an 8751 chip. ;-)

I doubt seriously that John Larkin could even draw a schematic of a
555 at the transistor level.I don't quite understand this "hate" of 555's, much like the hate of Sarah Palin, driven by intense jealousy. ...Jim Thompson

A 74123 is probably the crappiest one-shot ever. ...Jim Thompson

I dunno. We had an entire product that depended on a whole bunch of them. It worked great and made us a ton of money. I re-designed it using a few synchronous state machines in PAL chips back in '94. That worked much better, was about a third of the size and used less power. ________________________________________________________
I was aiming at a little humor with my response, since I positively *love* two-shot espressos.

I have a ceramic 486DX chip that's a very fine x-acto knife sharpener.

TI makes a tinylogic single 123 in a US8 package
SN74LVC1G123DCU
Nice for blinking LEDs on narrow pulses and such.

I've used more '123s (2, I think)) than '555s (0) in my career.
I used one of those (in a TSOP or SM8, or some such) this year, in fact.
I've used a lot of 123's. A dual 123 makes a neat tach or wideband FM discriminator.

which I need to do again soon.
I used a 555 once. Broke a perfect record. At least I didn't use it the normal way.
John
Oh, I've designed with them. Not afraid of them at all. The projects always get killed, though. Perhaps there's a lesson in there...
Has it seen a lot of use? The tie pin, I mean, not the 8751.

Yup. Anything simple enough to be done with a 555 can't be worth much.

Jealous of a 555? I'm pretty good at timing, and my wife thinks I'm a little unstable, but jealous of a one-shot? No thank you.
My jealously of Sarah is limited to her thick and lustrous hair.

Cool!

What's a tie pin?
What's a tie?
