Simple boost converter using timer IC 555 for charging capacitor banks

A boost converter is capable to increase input voltage to a certain voltage level which is required by a high voltage load. In this project, a 12V battery is used as input voltage to the boost converter circuit. The Timer IC 555 is the main control device used to control the switching of the MOSFET....
