DESCRIPTION/ORDERING INFORMATION
The SN74AHC123A device is a dual retriggerable monostable multivibrator designed for 2-V to 5.5-V VCC
operation.
This edge-triggered multivibrator features 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 programmed by selecting external resistance and capacitance values. The external
timing capacitor must be connected between Cext and Rext/Cext (positive) and an external resistor connected
between Rext/Cext and VCC. To obtain variable pulse durations, connect an external variable resistance between
Rext/Cext and VCC. The output pulse duration can be reduced by taking CLR low.
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.
Once triggered, the basic pulse duration can be extended by retriggering the gated low-level-active (A) or
high-level-active (B) input. Pulse duration can be reduced by taking CLR low. CLR can be used to override A or
B inputs. The input/output timing diagram illustrates pulse control by retriggering the inputs and early clearing.
The variance in output pulse duration from device to device is less than ±0.5% (typ) for given external timing
components. An example of this distribution for the SN74AHC123A is shown in Figure 10. Variations in output
pulse duration versus supply voltage and temperature are shown in Figure 6.
