> Low power applications. How does latent power draw compare between a 555 and a typical low power microcontroller? The 555 is very power hungry compared to a typical cheap low-power microcontroller. IIRC there are lower power variants but the 555 still fundamentally does timing by draining current through a resistor, which is going to result in losses. |
