Summary
555 and "551" type CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) timer integrated circuits have been evaluated for cryogenic use as resistor-capacitor oscillators. First, the behaviour of 28 different integrated circuits was compared between room and liquid nitrogen temperatures, under a variety of operating conditions. The behaviour of 6 of these integrated circuits was then measured as a function of temperature over the range 80-320 K. All circuits operated reasonably well down to 80 K, with frequency variations within more or less 2% at about 3 kilohertz. Tests on 7 integrated circuits at liquid helium temperature showed that they were not suitable for use at this temperature.
