PinSignal / NameTypAlternative Funktionen
1DISCHAnalog
Discharge A — open-collector switch; connects timing capacitor to GND during output LOW phase; connect to RC timing network
2THRESAnalog
Threshold A — comparator input; when voltage rises above 2/3 VCC, output goes LOW and discharge transistor turns ON
3CONTAnalog
Control Voltage A — direct access to internal 2/3 VCC voltage divider; connect 10nF cap to GND to filter noise; can be used to modulate threshold externally
4RSTDigital
Reset A (Active Low) — forces output LOW and discharge ON regardless of other inputs; tie to VCC if unused
5OUTDigital
Timer A Output — HIGH when triggered and in timing period; LOW when threshold exceeded or reset active; can source/sink up to 200mA
6TRIGAnalog
Trigger A — when voltage falls below 1/3 VCC, output goes HIGH and timing begins; active-low pulse input
7GNDGround
System Ground (0V) — shared by both timer halves
8TRIGAnalog
Trigger B — when voltage falls below 1/3 VCC, output goes HIGH and timing begins; active-low pulse input
9OUTDigital
Timer B Output — HIGH when triggered and in timing period; LOW when threshold exceeded or reset active; can source/sink up to 200mA
10RSTDigital
Reset B (Active Low) — forces output LOW and discharge ON regardless of other inputs; tie to VCC if unused
11CONTAnalog
Control Voltage B — direct access to internal 2/3 VCC voltage divider; connect 10nF cap to GND to filter noise
12THRESAnalog
Threshold B — comparator input; when voltage rises above 2/3 VCC, output goes LOW and discharge transistor turns ON
13DISCHAnalog
Discharge B — open-collector switch; connects timing capacitor to GND during output LOW phase; connect to RC timing network
14VCCPower
Positive Power Supply (+5V to +15V; add 100nF bypass capacitor to GND near pin)
