NE556

NE556 SA556 - SE556 GENERAL PURPOSE DUAL BIPOLAR TIMERS s LOW TURN OFF TIME s MAXIMUM OPERATING FREQUENCY GREATER THAN 500kHz s TIMING FROM MICROSECONDS TO HOURS s OPERATES IN BOTH ASTABLE AND MONOSTABLE MODES s HIGH OUTPUT CURRENT CAN SOURCE OR SINK 200mA N DIP14 (Plastic Package) s ADJUSTABLE DUTY CYCLE s TTL COMPATIBLE s TEMPERATURE STABILITY OF 0.005% PER°C DESCRIPTION The NE556 dual monolithic timing circuit is a highly stable controller capable of producing accurate time delays or oscillation. In the time delay mode of operation, the time is precisely controlled by one external resistor and capacitor. For a stable operation as an oscillator, the free running frequency and the duty cycle are both accurately controlled with two external resistors and one capacitor. The circuit may be triggered and reset on falling waveforms, and the output structure can source or sink up to 200mA.

Supply current when output is high is typically 1mA less. 2. Tested at VCC = +5V and VCC = +15V 3. This will determine the maximum value of RA + RB for +15V operation the max total is R = 20M Ω and for 5V operation the max total R = 3.5MΩ 4. Specified with trigger input high 5. No protection against excessive pin 7 current is necessary, providing the package dissipation rating will not be exceeded 6. Time measured from a positive going input pulse from 0 to 0.8x Vcc into the threshold to the drop from high to low of the output trigger is tied to threshold. 3/8 NE556- SA556-SE556 Figure 1 : Minimum Pulse Width Required for Triggering Figure 4 : Low Output Voltage versus Output Sink Current Figure 2 : Supply Current versus Supply Voltage Figure 5 : Low Output Voltage versus Output Sink Current Figure 3 : Delay Time versus Temperature Figure 6 : Low Output Voltage versus Output Sink Current 4/8 NE556-SA556-SE556 Figure 7 : High Output Voltage Drop versus Output TYPICAL APPLICATION 50% DUTY CYCLE OSCILLATOR VCC 4 6 (8) (10) 14 (13) 1 RA 51kW Rs 22kW (12) 2 1/2 NE556 SE556 Output 5 (9) 7 (11) 3 0.01nF C Figure 8 : Delay Time versus Supply Voltage t1 = 0.693 RA.C R B – 2 RA t 2 = [(RARB)/(RA+RB)]CLn -------------------------2 RB – RA t1 1 f = ---------------- R B < -- RA ti t1 + t2 2 t2 t1 Figure 9 : Propagation Delay versus Voltage Level of Trigger Value PULSE WIDTH MODULATOR VCC RA 4 Trigger 6 (8) (10) 14 (13) 1 1/2 NE556 SE556 Output 5 (9) 7 (12) 2 (11) 3 C MODULATION INPUT 5/8 NE556- SA556-SE556 TONE BURST GENERATOR For a tone burst generator the first timer is used as a monostable and determines the tone duration when triggered by a positive pulse at pin 6. The second timer is enabled by the high output or the monostable. It is connected as an astable and determines the frequency of the tone. +15V Reset Rt Trigger Trigger 6 Discharge 1 2 Threshold C1 4 Vcc 14 5 Output 10 Reset 14 Discharge 13 1/2 NE556 SE556 Control 3 Output 9 Ground 0.01m F RA 1/2 NE556 SE556 RB 12 Threshold 8 Trigger 11 Control Ground 0.01m F C2 T = 1.1 R t .C1 f= 1.44 R A + 2R B ) C Ground MONOSTABLE OPERATION VCC RL 4 Trigger (10) 6 (8) ASTABLE OPERATION VCC RA 14 (13) 1 RL 4 (10) RA 14 (13) 1 1/2 NE556 SE556 (12) 2 Output 5 (9) 1/2 NE556 SE556 (12) 2 RB Output RL 5 (9) 7 (11) 3 RL 7 (11) 3 0.01nF (8) 6 10nF C C Operating frequency T = 1.1 R A .C f= 1.44 R A + 2R B ) C t1 = 0.693 (RA + RB) C Output High t2 = 0.693 RBC Output Low t2 t1 6/8 NE556-SA556-SE556 PACKAGE MECHANICAL DATA Plastic DIP-14 MECHANICAL DATA mm.
