The ’LV221A devices are dual multivibrators
designed for 2-V to 5.5-V V operation. Each

multivibrator has a negative-transition-triggered
(A) input and a positive-transition-triggered (B)
input, either of which can be used as an inhibit
input.
NC – No internal connection
These edge-triggered multivibrators feature
output pulse-duration control by three methods. In
the first method, the A input is low and the B input
goes high. In the second method, the B input is
high and the A input goes low. In the third method,
the A input is low, the B input is high, and the clear
(CLR) input goes high.
The output pulse duration is programmable by selecting external resistance and capacitance values. The
external timing capacitor must be connected between C and R /C (positive) and an external resistor

Pulse triggering occurs at a particular voltage level and is not directly related to the transition time of the input
pulse. The A, B, and CLR inputs have Schmitt triggers with sufficient hysteresis to handle slow input transition
rates with jitter-free triggering at the outputs.
