PRODUCTION DATA
The output stages switch at half the oscillator frequency, in a push-pull configuration. When the voltage on the RC pin is rising, one of the two outputs is high, but during fall time, both outputs are off. The dead time between the two outputs, along with a slower output rise time than fall time, verifies that the two outputs are not on at the same time. Dead time is typically 60ns to 200ns and depends upon the values of the timing capacitor and resistor.
The high-current output drivers consist of MOSFET output devices, which switch from VDD to GND. Each output stage also provides a very low impedance to overshoot and undershoot. In many cases, external Schottky-clamp diodes are not required.
