TS555 Low power single CMOS timer Features ■ Very low power consumption: 110 µA typ at VCC = 5 V 90 µa typ at VCC = 3 V ■ High maximum astable frequency of 2.7 MHz ■ Pin-to-pin functionally-compatible with bipolar NE555 ■ Wide voltage range: +2 V to +16 V ■ Supply current spikes reduced during output transitions ■ High input impedance: 1012 Ω ■ Output compatible with TTL, CMOS and logic MOS N DIP8 (Plastic package) D SO8 (Plastic micropackage) Description The TS555 is a single CMOS timer with a very low consumption: (Icc(TYP) TS555 = 110 µA at VCC = +5 V versus Icc(TYP) NE555 = 3 mA), and high frequency: (ff(max.) TS555 = 2.7 MHz versus f(max) NE555 = 0.1 MHz). P TSSOP8 (Thin shrink small outline package) Timing remains accurate in both monostable and astable mode. The TS555 provides reduced supply current spikes during output transitions, which enable the use of lower decoupling capacitors compared to those required by bipolar NE555. Pin connections (top view) With the high input impedance (1012Ω), timing capacitors can also be minimized.

The external capacitor is initially held discharged by a transistor inside the timer, as shown in Figure 4. Figure 4. Application schematic VCC Reset R 8 4 Trigger 7 2 TS555 Out 6 C 5 3 1 Control Voltage 0.01μF The circuit triggers on a negative-going input signal when the level reaches 1/3 VCC. Once triggered, the circuit remains in this state until the set time has elapsed, even if it is triggered again during this interval. The duration of the output HIGH state is given by t = 1.1 R x C. Since the charge rate and threshold level of the comparator are both directly proportional to the supply voltage, the timing interval is independent of the supply. Applying a negative pulse simultaneously to the Reset terminal (pin 4) and the Trigger terminal (pin 2) during the timing cycle discharges the external capacitor and causes the cycle to start over. The timing cycle then starts on the positive edge of the reset pulse. While the reset pulse is applied, the output is driven to the LOW state. When a negative trigger pulse is applied to pin 2, the flip-flop is set, releasing the short circuit across the external capacitor and driving the output HIGH. The voltage across the capacitor increases exponentially with the time constant τ = R x C. When the voltage across the capacitor equals 2/3 VCC, the comparator resets the flip-flop which then discharges the capacitor rapidly and drives the output to its LOW state. Figure 5 shows the actual waveforms generated in this mode of operation. When Reset is not used, it should be tied high to avoid any false triggering. Figure 5.

The external capacitor charges through RA and RB and discharges through RB only. Therefore, the duty cycle may be precisely set by the ratio of these two resistors. In the astable mode of operation, C charges and discharges between 1/3 VCC and 2/3 VCC. As in the triggered mode, the charge and discharge times, and therefore frequency, are independent of the supply voltage. Figure 6.

The charge time (output HIGH) is given by: t1 = 0.693 (RA + RB) C The discharge time (output LOW) by: t2 = 0.693 x RB x C Thus the total period T is given by: T = t1 + t2 = 0.693 (RA + 2RB) C The frequency of oscillation is then: 1 1.44 f = --- = -------------------------------------T (RA + 2RB )C The duty cycle is given by: RB D = --------------------------RA + 2RB Figure 7.
