| 2-Pin Terminal Block Connector | For power input | 2-Pin Terminal Block Connector |
| Resistor [R1] | 10kΩ | 10kΩ Resistor |
| Resistor [R2] | 100Ω | 100Ω Resistor |
| Resistor [R3] (Current-limiting resistor for output) | Value to be determined based on LED specs | Current-limiting Resistor |
| Capacitor [C1] | 100nF (0.1µF) | 100nF Capacitor |
| Capacitor [C2] (Decoupling) | 0.1µF | 0.1µF Capacitor |
| Diode | 1N4148 | 1N4148 Diode |
| LED | Standard LED | LED |
| Ground Connection | Interconnect all GND nodes | Ground |
Note:
For an astable 555 configuration at 1.5 kHz, ensure that the resistor and capacitor values (R1, R2, and C1) are selected appropriately using the formula:
