(1) Component qualification in accordance with JEDEC and industry standards to ensure reliable operation over an extended temperature range. This includes, but is not limited to, Highly Accelerated Stress Test (HAST) or biased 85/85, temperature cycle, autoclave or unbiased HAST, electromigration, bond intermetallic life, and mold compound life. Such qualification testing should not be viewed as justifying use of this component beyond specified performance and environmental limits.
Description for the SN74AHC123A-EP
The SN74AHC123A device is a dual retriggerable monostable multivibrator designed for 2-V to 5.5-V VCC operation.
This edge-triggered multivibrator features output pulse-duration control by three methods. In the first method, the A input is low, and the B input goes high. In the second method, the B input is high, and the A input goes low. In the third method, the A input is low, the B input is high, and the clear (CLR) input goes high.
The output pulse duration is programmed by selecting external resistance and capacitance values. The external timing capacitor must be connected between Cext and Rext/Cext (positive) and an external resistor connected between Rext/Cext and VCC. To obtain variable pulse durations, connect an external variable resistance between Rext/Cext and VCC. The output pulse duration can be reduced by taking CLR low.
Pulse triggering occurs at a particular voltage level and is not directly related to the transition time of the input pulse. The A, B, and CLR inputs have Schmitt triggers with sufficient hysteresis to handle slow input transition rates with jitter-free triggering at the outputs.
Once triggered, the basic pulse duration can be extended by retriggering the gated low-level-active (A) or high-level-active (B) input. Pulse duration can be reduced by taking CLR low. CLR can be used to override A or B inputs. The input/output timing diagram illustrates pulse control by retriggering the inputs and early clearing.
The variance in output pulse duration from device to device is less than ±0.5% (typ) for given external timing components.
During power up, Q outputs are in the low state and Q outputs are in the high state. The outputs are glitch free, without applying a reset pulse.
