Buy CD4047 IC – Astable/Monostable Multivibrator IC

Astable operation is enabled by a high level on the STABLE input or a low level on the ASTABLE input, or both. The period of the square wave at the Q and Q Outputs in this mode off operation is a function of the external components employed. “True” input pulses on the ASTABLE input or “Complement” pulses on the ASTABLE input allow the circuit to be used as a gatable multivibrator. The OSCILLATOR output period will be half of the Q terminal output in the astable mode. However, a 50% duty cycle is not guaranteed at this output.

The CD4047 triggers in the monostable mode when a positive-going edge occurs on the +TRIGGER-input while the -TRIGGER is held low. INput pulses may be of any duration relative to the output pulse.

If retrigger capability is desired, the RETRIGGER input is pulsed. The retriggerable mode of operation is limited to positive-going edge. The CD4047B will retrigger as long as the RETRIGGER-input is high, with or without transitions (See Fig. 34).

An external countdown option can be implemented by coupling “Q” to an external “N” counter and resetting the counter with the trigger pulse. The counter output pulse is fed back to the ASTABLE input and has a duration equal to N times the period of the multivibrator.

A high level on the EXTERNAL RESET input assures no output pulse during an “ON” power condition. This input can also be activated to terminate the output pulse at any tine. For monostable operation, whenever V_DD is applied, and internal power-on reset circuit will clock the Q output low within one output period (t_M).

The CD4047-Series types are supplied in 14-lead hermetic dual-in-line ceramic packages (F3A suffix), 14-lead dual-in-line plastic packages (E suffix), 14-lead small outline packages (M, MT, M96, and NSR suffixes), and 14-lead thin shrink small-outline packages (PW and PWR suffixes).
