Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the NE555?
Yes. the footprint Package_SO:SOP-8_3.76x4.96mm_P1.27mm, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.
What package is the NE555?
SOP-8, with 8 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.
Where is the NE555 datasheet?
GR publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.
Where can I order the NE555?
JLCPCB lists it as part C18164403, with 12,855 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.
What can replace the NE555?
Parts like it in the library: the LM555DRG by HANSCHIP semiconductor, the NE555DTR(XBLW) by XBLW, the NE555 by IDCHIP and the LM555M/TR by HGSEMI. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
Which open-source boards use the NE555?
170 boards in 144 repositories on GitHub; the most starred are listed on this page, with their KiCad files.
