When the
μ
PC1555 is configured as shown in
Fig. a, it functions as a monostable multivibrator.
Applying a voltage one-third as high as V
CC
or less
(trigger pulse
Note 9
) to pin 2 (trigger pin) drives the
output to a high level. Under this condition, capacitor
C
1
starts charging through resistor R
1
. When C
1
is
charged up to two-thirds as high as V
CC
, pin 6 (threshold
pin) is turned on and inverted to a low level. At this point,
C
1
starts discharging through pin 7. When a trigger
pulse is applied to pin 2 again, the same operation is
repeated. Fig. b shows this operation. A capacitor
connected to pin 5 functions as a nose filter for the
control voltage. If pin 4 (reset pin) is connected to 1 V
or higher (for example, by being connected to V
CC
), the
circuit operation can be stopped by switching it from 2
V or higher to a GND level.
The output pulse width (delay) is determined theo-
retically by (see Fig. c):
t = 1.1
C
1
R
1
The value obtained by this equation is only an approximate value, however. If it is necessary to obtain an accurate
output pulse width, determine R
1
and C
1
through actual measurement and confirmation; a trimmer should be used
as required. Moreover, R
1
should be 300
or higher.
Notes
9.
Keep the trigger pulse width smaller than the output pulse width.
10.
If the load is connected across the output and GND pins, a “staircase” occurs in the output waveform.
The application circuits and their parameters are for references only and are not intended for use in actual
design-in's.
