Hi Hagen, we could make a combo chip:

What do you think?
WAY too ambitious. The [7]555/6 is a well-known standard design, so it's mostly a proof-of-concept for the tool chain used.
It's an excellent idea to start with small steps.
What tool chain does Ferenc want to use, anyhow?

Hello List.
Today in our weekly Mumble Session we talked about a smaller chip, which could be realized before the Northpoint.
Well, we came across the well-known "triple-5 chip". The original NE555 [0] was developed by the Swiss electronics engineer Hans Camenzind [1] and get cloned by nearly all silicon firms on the market in this era. Great starting points for our CMOS-based clone are the wikipedia site and the free eBook [2] of the original author. I strongly recommend everybody to read this great book!
