Audio output frequency is that range of frequencies that can be heard. For humans, that is generally considered to be the range of 20Hz to 20kHz.
The IC You speak of, commonly referred to as a 555, is a multivibrator. Simply put, it can be configured to produce voltage pulses in some order.In the case of a buzzer circuit, it is used to vibrate with a certain frequency - this frequency is then driven to the speaker and is heard as the 'buzz'. And thus, it's a frequency source.
Deviation ratio: In a frequency modulation system, the ratio of the maximum frequency deviation of the carrier to the maximum modulating frequency of the system under specified conditions
12 flip-flops in series can divide by 4096. 20.48 MHz divided by 4096 is 5 KHz.Other division factors are possible, but 4096 is the maximum.
In natural frequencies the output of the system will be less than the maximum level. In the resonance frequency the output of the system will be the maximum level.
See the section on Astable mode for a sample circuit:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/555_timer_ICSee the section on 555 Timing: Ra Rbhttp://www.williamson-labs.com/555-circuits.htmGoogle is your friend.
The half-power frequency is the frequency at which the power of a signal is half of its maximum value. In terms of filters, it is the frequency at which the output power drops to half of the maximum power. This frequency is commonly used to define the bandwidth of a filter.
The 555 IC timer does not have a clock.
Yes. Setup the 555 as an oscillator and plug the capacitor under test into it and measure the frequency of the signal generated. For more precision, measure the charge time only, and use a constant current source, but that is getting more complicated than need be - there are far better ways to test a capacitor than with a 555.

The 555 is a timer and oscillator chip capable of sourcing and sinking 200 milliamperes, and is useful for pulsing an infrared LED to power an infrared transmitter. It can be pulse width modulated or otherwise controlled via the various control pins. See: http://talkingelectronics.com/FreeProjects/555/555-P3.html in most cases the IR detector used is TSOP sensors which works only on a specified frequency of 38KHz. So by using 555 timer, we can design the circuit very easly to work @ 38KHz. dats why in 555 is used in many IR txns.
The main advantage of an IC 555 is that is useful for creating different kinds of purposes like time delays, oscillator purposes, and pulse generation. The time increments are incredibly adjustable, such as from microseconds to hours.
twice the input frequency
Check for shorts to ground from your output pin
I'd probably just use a higher frequency source and a counter. Count the number of 555 toggles per period and you have the frequency.
