NSC HC123

MM54HC123A/MM74HC123A
Dual Retriggerable Monostable Multivibrator
General Description
The MM54/74HC123A high speed monostable multivibrators (one shots) utilize advanced silicon-gate CMOS technology. They feature speeds comparable to low power
Schottky TTL circuitry while retaining the low power and
high noise immunity characteristic of CMOS circuits.
Each multivibrator features both a negative, A, and a positive, B, transition triggered input, either of which can be
used as an inhibit input. Also included is a clear input that
when taken low resets the one shot. The ’HC123 can be
triggered on the positive transition of the clear while A is
held low and B is held high.
The ’HC123A is retriggerable. That is it may be triggered
repeatedly while their outputs are generating a pulse and
the pulse will be extended.
Pulse width stability over a wide range of temperature and
supply is achieved using linear CMOS techniques. The out-
put pulse equation is simply: PW e (REXT) (CEXT); where PW
is in seconds, R is in ohms, and C is in farads. All inputs are
protected from damage due to static discharge by diodes to
VCC and ground.

Note 1: Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which damage to the device may occur.
Note 2: Unless otherwise specified all voltages are referenced to ground.
Note 3: Power Dissipation Temperature Derating:
Plastic ‘‘N’’ Package: b 12mW/§ C from 65§ C to 85§ C
Ceramic ‘‘J’’ Package: b 12mW/§ C from 100§ C to 125§ C.
Note 4: For a power supply of 5V g 10% the worst-case output voltages (VOH, VOL) occur for HC at 4.5V. Thus the 4.5V values should be used when designing
with this supply. Worst-case VIH and VIL occur at VCC e 5.5V and 4.5V respectively. (The VIH value at 5.5V is 3.85V.) The worst-case leakage current (IIN, ICC, and
IOZ) occur for CMOS at the higher voltage and so the 6.0V values should be used.

FIGURE 1
channel transistor N1 j . At the same time the output latch
is set. With transistor N1 on, the capacitor CEXT rapidly discharges toward GND until VREF1 is reached. At this point
the output of comparator C1 changes state and transistor
N1 turns off. Comparator C1 then turns off while at the
same time comparator C2 turns on. With transistor N1 off,
the capacitor CEXT begins to charge through the timing re-
TRIGGER OPERATION
As shown in Figure 1 and the logic diagram before an input
trigger occurs, the one shot is in the quiescent state with the
Q output low, and the timing capacitor CEXT completely
charged to VCC. When the trigger input A goes from VCC to
GND (while inputs B and clear are held to VCC) a valid trigger is recognized, which turns on comparator C1 and N-
4
toward VCC. The Q output will remain high until time T, after
the last valid retrigger.
Because the trigger-control circuit flip-flop resets shortly after CX has discharged to the reference voltage of the lower
reference circuit, the minimum retrigger time, trr is a function
of internal propagation delays and the discharge time of CX:
187
565 a (0.256 VCC) CX
a
trr & 20 a
[VCC b 0.7] 2
VCC b 0.7
Another removal/retrigger time occurs when a short clear
pulse is used. Upon receipt of a clear, the one shot must
charge the capacitor up to the upper trip point before the
one shot is ready to receive the next trigger. This time is
dependent on the capacitor used and is approximately:
sistor, REXT, toward VCC. When the voltage across CEXT
equals VREF2, comparator C2 changes state causing the
output latch to reset (Q goes low) while at the same time
disabling comparator C2. This ends the timing cycle with the
monostable in the quiescent state, waiting for the next trigger.
A valid trigger is also recognized when trigger input B goes
from GND to VCC (while input A is at GND and input clear is
at VCC k ). The ’HC123A can also be triggered when clear
goes from GND to VCC (while A is at GND and B is at
VCC o ).
It should be noted that in the quiescent state CEXT is fully
charged to VCC causing the current through resistor REXT to
be zero. Both comparators are ‘‘off’’ with the total device
current due only to reverse junction leakages. An added
feature of the ’HC123A is that the output latch is set via the input trigger without regard to the capacitor voltage. Thus, propagation delay from trigger to Q is independent of the value
of CEXT, REXT, or the duty cycle of the input waveform.
trr e 196 a
RESET OPERATION
These one shots may be reset during the generation of the
output pulse. In the reset mode of operation, an input pulse
on clear sets the reset latch and causes the capacitor to be
fast charged to VCC by turning on transistor Q1 n . When
the voltage on the capacitor reaches VREF2, the reset latch
will clear and then be ready to accept another pulse. If the
clear input is held low, any trigger inputs that occur will be
inhibited and the Q and Q outputs of the output latch will
not change. Since the Q output is reset when an input low
level is detected on the Clear input, the output pulse T can
be made significantly shorter than the minimum pulse width
specification.
RETRIGGER OPERATION
The ’HC123A is retriggered if a valid trigger occurs l followed by another trigger m before the Q output has returned to the quiescent (zero) state. Any retrigger, after the
timing node voltage at the R/CEXT pin has begun to rise
from VREF1, but has not yet reached VREF2, will cause an
increase in output pulse width T. When a valid retrigger is
initiated m , the voltage at the R/CEXT pin will again drop to
VREF1 before progressing along the RC charging curve
