Product details

What the NE555P does on your board

The NE555P is a single 555-type timer/oscillator from Texas Instruments, built for timing delays, pulse generation, and oscillator circuits up to 100 kHz. It operates from a 4.5V to 16V supply rail, drawing 10 mA typical supply current — wide enough to run off a 5V logic rail or a 12V industrial supply without a regulator. The 8-DIP package (0.300" row spacing) is through-hole, which simplifies prototyping and hand-assembly; the 8-PDIP supplier device package is the same body.

Temperature grade and environment fit

If your BOM calls for an industrial-temperature 555, the NE555P is not that part; look for the NE555PE4 or the SA555P variant if the ambient exceeds 70°C.

Frequently asked questions

Can the NE555P replace the NE555N?

Yes, the NE555P is electrically identical to the NE555N — both are 555 timers with the same 4.5V–16V supply range and 100 kHz max frequency. The only difference is the package: the NE555P comes in a 8-DIP (0.300" width), while the NE555N is typically in an 8-DIP (0.300") as well, so they are pin-compatible drop-in replacements.
