PRODUCTION DATA
The output pulse duration, tw, is determined primarily by the values of the external capacitance (CT) and timing resistance (RT). The timing components are connected as shown in Figure 7-1.
Figure 7-1 Timing-Component ConnectionsThe pulse duration is given by:
tw = K × RT × CT (1)
if CT is ≥ 1000 pF, K = 1.0 or
if CT is < 1000 pF, K can be determined from Figure 7-4
where:
tw = pulse duration in ns
RT = external timing resistance in kΩ
CT = external capacitance in pF
K = multiplier factor
Equation 1 and Figure 7-2 can be used to determine values for pulse duration, external resistance, and external capacitance.
