7.3.3 Timing Mechanism and Accuracy

The output pulse width (two) is controlled by the selection of external timing components Rext and Cext. The TPUL2G123-Q1 has been designed to target a typical output pulse width of two ≅ Rext × Cext, however the actual pulse width changes with multiple variables, and thus a nonlinearity correction factor, K, is added to provide the system designer with a more accurate pulse width estimation. Equation 1 is used to most accurately predict the output pulse width.

Equation 1. t wo = K × R e x t × C e x t

The output pulse width is dependent on multiple variables:

  • External timing components (Rext, Cext)
  • Voltage
  • Temperature
  • Manufacturing and design

The external timing component values directly control the output pulse width, and any variations in component values due to manufacturing, voltage, aging, or temperature will directly impact the output pulse width.

Most resistors maintain very consistent values during operation, and thus tend to have little impact on accuracy.

Most capacitors have a wide variation of manufacturing values, and additionally can vary due to age, temperature, and operating voltage. Typically, the timing capacitor is the largest single source of error for RC timed monostable multivibrators.

There is also some error introduced by the TPUL2G123-Q1. This error is provided as Δtwo in the Switching Characteristics section and includes variations due to design, manufacturing, and temperature.

Estimating the percent error of the output pulse width (eΔtwo) requires multiple inputs. Equation 2 provides the best method to estimate total pulse width error due to tolerance of components, with eR being the error introduced by the timing resistor, eC being the error introduced by the timing capacitor, and Δtwo being the error introduced by the TPUL2G123-Q1. There is additionally some randomness inherent to the pulse width even with all other factors held constant which is typically less than 1% and is accounted for in the Δtwo specification.

Equation 2. e Δ t w o = e R + e C + e R e C + Δ t w o 1 + e R + e C + e R e C

For a quick estimate, the sum of the error values can be used (eΔtwo ≅ eR + eC + Δtwo). For example, a TPUL2G123-Q1 application circuit using a very good Class I (C0G) capacitor with 2% manufacturing tolerance + 0.3% (30ppm/°C) temperature variation, 0.1% resistor, and Δtwo(max) of 10% would have a quickly estimated maximum error of 12.4%. With the more accurate equation, the maximum error is actually 12.64%.
