A thread about neat 555 facts and stories. Doing some research in the 555 timer. Did you know that the 555 timer was originally released in both a standard DIP-8 package along with a metal can package? Does anyone have one of these? 🧵🪡

It’s good to have someone to blame, but Whitehouse didn’t do this from the shore station in Valentia.

Imagine making such a scene about being fired that people are still reading about it 175 years later. Legend.
“When, shortly after the laying of the cable, it became evident that Mr, Whitehouse could not make it work, it was actually necessary use force to disengage his grip on the enterprise and its instruments. He was turned out of the Valentia Telegraph-house with violence and contumely. When, therefore, he sets forth a scheme, the condition precedent of which is that he shoull be reinstated in possession and authority, …right that caution should be exercised in entertaining it.” - Harper’s Weekly on the firing of Dr EOW Whitehouse
