555 Oscillator circuit.

D.C. = 30%
f = 15750 Hz
Vcc = 12V
The frequency of oscillation is:
1.44
= (1)
( + 2 )

The period is given by:

1
= + = = 63.5 (2)

Where the charge time is given by:

= 0.693 ( + ) (2.1)

And the discharge time by:

= 0.693 ( ) (2.2)

Achieve a duty cycle of 30% at the output is not possible so we are going to calculate for a
duty cycle of 70% then inverting it we get the desired 70%.
From 2 we get
= ( + ) 0.7 = 44.444
= ( + ) 0.3 = 19.048

Substituting in 2.1 and 2.2 respectively:

44.444
( + ) = = 64.12 (2.1)
0.693
19.049
( ) = = 27.48 (2.2)
0.693

Then:
27.48
= (3)

From 3 in 2.1a:
27.48
( + ) = 64.12

Then:
36.64
= (4)

We choose C = 0.01 uF, so we get from 3 and 4:

= 2 748
= 3 664
