NE/SA/SE556/NE556-1Dual timer

August 31, 1994 853-0035 13721
DESCRIPTION
Both the 556 and 556-1 Dual Monolithic timing circuits are highly
stable controllers capable of producing accurate time delays or
oscillation. The 556 and 556-1 are a dual 555. Timing is provided by
an external resistor and capacitor for each timing function. The two
timers operate independently of each other, sharing only V
CC
and
ground. The circuits may be triggered and reset on falling
waveforms. The output structures may sink or source 200mA.
FEATURES
•Turn-off time less than 2µs (556-1)
•Maximum operating frequency >500kHz (556-1)
•Timing from microseconds to hours
•Replaces two 555 timers
•Operates in both astable and monostable modes
•High output current
•Adjustable duty cycle
•TTL compatible
•Temperature stability of 0.005%/°C
•SE556-1 compliant to MIL-STD or JAN
APPLICATIONS
•Precision timing
•Sequential timing
•Pulse shaping

NOTES:
1. The junction temperature must be kept below 125°C for the D package and below 150°C for the N and F packages. At ambient temperatures
above 25°C, where this limit would be exceeded, the Maximum Allowable Power Dissipation must be derated by the following:
D package 115°C/W
N package 80°C/W
F package 100°C/W
