Overview

The TLC556 is a precision timing device used for general-purpose timing applications up to 2.1MHz. All inputs are level sensitive, not edge-triggered inputs. RESET overrides TRIG, which overrides THRES (when CONT pin is 2/3 VDD). The resistance of R resistors vary with VDD and temperature. The resistors match each other very well across VDD and temperature for a temperature-stable control-voltage ratio.
