Features

  • Very low power consumption:
    • 2mW typical at VDD = 5V
  • Capable of operation in a stable mode
  • CMOS output capable of swinging rail to rail
  • High output-current capability
    • Sink: 100mA typical
    • Source: 10mA typical
  • Output fully compatible with CMOS, TTL, and MOS
  • Low supply current reduces spikes during output transitions
  • Single-supply operation from 2V to 15V
  • Functionally interchangeable with the NE556; has same pinout
