From your message, it appears that you intend to design a flashing light circuit using the NE555N timer IC. Here's a basic schematic that you could follow. The 555 timer is configured in its astable mode, which makes the output oscillate on and off continuously, creating a pulsing (or flashing) effect.
Here's an outline of the basic connections:
  1. VCC (Pin 8): Connect to the positive of your power supply.
  2. GND (Pin 1): Connect to the ground or negative side of your power supply.
  3. Output (Pin 3): Connect to your LED through a suitable current limiting resistor.
  4. Reset (Pin 4): Connect to VCC to disable the reset functionality (as we're not using it in this example).
  5. Control Voltage (Pin 5): Leave unconnected or, for better stability, connect to ground through a 0.01μF capacitor.
  6. Threshold (Pin 6) and Trigger (Pin 2): Connect together and attach to the junction of two resistors:
    • One resistor connects from VCC to this junction
    • The other resistor connects from this junction to Discharge (Pin 7) and to a capacitor whose other end goes to GND. The values of the two resistors and the capacitor help define the blinking rate of the LED.
  7. Discharge (Pin 7): As mentioned, connect to the resistor-capacitor junction.
Note: The specific values of the resistors and capacitor in the RC network will determine the flash rate. For example, if you use a 4.7kΩ resistor for both resistors and a 10uF capacitor, you'll get a flash rate of around 1Hz (1 flash per second). The flash rate ($f$) can be roughly estimated using: [f = \frac{1.44}{{(R1 + 2R2) \cdot C1}}] Where $R1$ and $R2$ are the resistance values and $C1$ is the capacitance.
As this is a basic suggestion, you might need to fine-tune the values to suit your needs and also ensure that the power supply and current-limiting resistor are suitable for your specific LED.

Using Flux, the electronics CAD program, involves several key steps to design electronic circuit schematics and PCB layouts. Here's a general guide to get you started:
  1. Create a New Project: Begin by creating a new project. This will give you a clean workspace where you can start designing your schematic and PCB layout.
  2. Design the Schematic:
    • Drag components from the library onto the schematic canvas.
    • Use wires to connect the components together according to your circuit design.
    • Assign values and names to the components as required.
  3. Validate Your Schematic: Check for any errors or warnings in your schematic. This step helps ensure that your circuit is correctly designed before moving on to the PCB layout.
  4. Create the PCB Layout:
    • Transfer your schematic design to the PCB layout editor.
    • Place the components on the board and route the traces to connect the components, following the connections established in the schematic.
    • Define the board shape and size, and add any necessary mechanical features or mounting holes.
  5. Check Design Rules: Use the Design Rule Check (DRC) feature to ensure that your PCB layout meets the specified manufacturing constraints and standards.
  6. Export Your Design: Once your design is complete and validated, export the necessary files for manufacturing. This typically includes Gerber files for the PCB fabrication and a Bill of Materials (BOM) for the component assembly.
