555 Signal Generator/Power Stepper
Ok, you asked
I'm working on a CMOS 555 based frequency/pulse-width dynamically controlled power stepper. The kind of stepped power one might drive a motor with or control the heater on a soldering iron.

It's exclusively for testing and measuring different coil designs. Spark-gaps, as previously mentioned, too, as well as EVGray tube type devices. So got to say it's more than a signal generator because I intend to pulse various levels of power into the target device. I'll also be aiming to scale down and minimize any HV heavy going on, being primarily concerned with constructing a safe, portable, and informative testing environment.
I'll always be driving a power switch with the 555 signal. The Stingo setup may just be the sharpest way to do the switching...capiche?

I see. What you want to use 555 for?
