+# 🔧 555 Timer LED Blinker Circuit (Astable Mode)
+
+This project uses a 555 timer IC in **astable mode** to blink an LED on and off at a regular interval.

+## 🔁 How It Works
+
+The 555 timer is configured in **astable mode**, which means it continuously switches between high and low states:
+
+- The **output pin (pin 3)** alternates between HIGH and LOW.
+- This causes the **LED to blink** on and off.
+- The **timing interval** is determined by **R1**, **R2**, and **C1**.
+
+---
+
+## ⏱️ Blinking Frequency Formula
+
+To change the blink rate:
+
+T = 0.693 × (R1 + 2×R2) × C1
+
+
+Where:
+- `T` is the period in seconds
+- `R1`, `R2` in ohms
+- `C1` in farads

+
+## ✅ Assembly Tips
+
+- Ensure **pin 1** is connected to **GND**
+- **Pin 8** goes to **Vcc**
+- Make sure the **capacitor polarity** is correct (− side to GND)
+- Use a **current-limiting resistor (R3)** with the LED to prevent damage

+
+This is a perfect beginner project to understand **timers**, **oscillation**, and **basic LED control**. Let me know if you'd like to simulate this or turn it into a PCB design!
