DESCRIPTION
The HCF4538B is a m onolithic integrated circuit
fabricated in Metal Oxide Semiconductor
technology available in DIP and SOP packages.
The HCF4538B dual precision monostable
multivibrator provides stable retriggerable/
resettable one-shot operation for any fixed voltage

timing application. An external resistor (R
an external capacitor (C
) control the timing and
X
accuracy for the circuit. Adjustment of R
) and
X
and C
X
provides a wide range of output pulse widths from
the Q and Q
terminals. The time delay from trigger
input to output transition (trigger propagation
delay) and the time delay from reset input to
output transition (reset propagation delay) and the
time delay from reset input to output transition
(reset propagation delay) are ind ependent of R
and CX. Precision control of output pulse width is
achieved through linear CMOS techniques.
Leading edge triggering (+TR) and trailing edge
triggering (-TR) inputs are pro vided for triggering

provided for immediate termination of the output
pulse or to prevent output pulses when power is
turned on. An unused RESET input should be tied
to V
. However, if an entire section of the
DD
HCF4538B is not used, its inputs must be tied to
either V
or VSS (see table 1). In normal
DD
operation the circuit triggers (ext ends the output
pulse one period) on the ap plication of each new
trigger pulse. For operation in the non-retiggerable
mode, Q
is connected to -TR when leading edge
triggering (+TR) is used or Q is connected to +TR
when trailing edge triggering (-TR) is used. The
time period (T) for this multivibrator can be
calculated by : T = R
external resistance, R
min. values of externa l capacitance, C
µF and 5n F, respectively.
