The MM54/74HC123A high speed monostable multivibrators (one shots) utilize advanced silicon-gate CMOS technology. They feature speeds comparable to low power
Schottky TTL circuitry while retaining the low power and
high noise immunity characteristic of CMOS circuits.
Each multivibrator features both a negative, A, and a positive, B, transition triggered input, either of which can be
used as an inhibit input. Also included is a clear input that
when taken low resets the one shot. The ’HC123 can be
triggered on the positive transition of the clear while A is
held low and B is held high.
The ’HC123A is retriggerable. That is it may be triggered
repeatedly while their outputs are generating a pulse and
the pulse will be extended.
Pulse width stability over a wide range of temperature and
supply is achieved using linear CMOS techniques. The out-
