SN74LS221
Dual Monostable
Multivibrators with
Schmitt-Trigger Inputs
Each multivibrator of the LS221 features a negative-transition-
triggered input and a positive-transition-triggered input either of
which can be used as an inhibit input.
Pulse triggering occurs at a voltage level and is not related to the
transition time of the input pulse. Schmitt-trigger input circuitry for B
input allows jitter-free triggering for inputs as slow as 1 volt / second,
providing the circuit with excellent noise immunity. A high immunity
to V
CC
noise is also provided by internal latching circuitry.
Once triggered, the outputs are independent of further transitions of
the inputs and are a function of the timing components. The output
pulses can be terminated by the overriding clear. Input pulse width
may be of any duration relative to the output pulse width. Output pulse
width may be varied from 35 nanoseconds to a maximum of 70 s by
choosing appropriate timing components. With R
ext
= 2.0 kΩ and C
ext
= 0, a typical output pulse of 30 nanoseconds is achieved. Output rise
and fall times are independent of pulse length.
Pulse width stability is achieved through internal compensation and
is virtually independent of V
CC
and temperature. In most applications,
pulse stability will only be limited by the accuracy of external timing
components.
Jitter-free operation is maintained over the full temperature and V
CC
ranges for greater than six decades of timing capacitance (10 pF to 10
µF),
and greater than one decade of timing resistance (2.0 to 100 kΩ
for the SN74LS221). Pulse width is defined by the relationship:

1000
µF
and resistance as low as 1.4 kΩ may be used. The range of
jitter-free pulse widths is extended if V
CC
is 5.0 V and 25°C
temperature.

OPERATIONAL NOTES
Once in the pulse trigger mode, the output pulse width is
determined by t
W
= R
ext
C
ext
In2, as long as R
ext
and C
ext
are
within their minimum and maximum valves and the duty
cycle is less than 50%. This pulse width is essentially
independent of V
CC
and temperature variations. Output
pulse widths varies typically no more than
±0.5%
from
device to device.
t
If the duty cycle, defined as being 100
@
W where T is the
T
period of the input pulse, rises above 50%, the output pulse
width will become shorter. If the duty cycle varies between
low and high valves, this causes the output pulse width to
vary in length, or jitter. To reduce jitter to a minimum, R
ext
should be as large as possible. (Jitter is independent of C
ext
).
With R
ext
= 100K, jitter is not appreciable until the duty
cycle approaches 90%.
Although the LS221 is pin-for-pin compatible with the
LS123, it should be remembered that they are not
functionally identical. The LS123 is retriggerable so that the
output is dependent upon the input transitions once it is high.
This is not the case for the LS221. Also note that it is
recommended to externally ground the LS123 C
ext
pin.
However, this cannot be done on the LS221.
The SN74LS221 is a dual, monolithic, non-retriggerable,
high-stability one shot. The output pulse width, t
W
can be
varied over 9 decades of timing by proper selection of the
external timing components, R
ext
and C
ext
.
Pulse triggering occurs at a voltage level and is, therefore,
independent of the input slew rate. Although all three inputs
have this Schmitt-trigger effect, only the B input should be
used for very long transition triggers (≥1.0
µV/s).
High
immunity to V
CC
noise (typically 1.5 V) is achieved by
internal latching circuitry. However, standard V
CC
bypassing is strongly recommended.
The LS221 has four basic modes of operation.
Clear Mode:
If the clear input is held low, irregardless of
the previous output state and other input
states, the Q output is low.
If either the A input is high or the B input is
low, once the Q output goes low, it cannot
be retriggered by other inputs.
Inhib-
it Mode:
Pulse Trigger
Mode:
A transition of the A or B inputs as indicated
in the functional truth table will trigger the Q
output to go high for a duration determined
by the t
W
equation described above; Q will
go low for a corresponding length of time.
The Clear input may also be used to trigger
an output pulse, but special logic precondi-
tioning on the A or B inputs must be done
as follows:
Following any output triggering action
using the A or B inputs, the A input must
be set high OR the B input must be set
low to allow Clear to be used as a trigger.
Inputs should then be set up per the truth
table (without triggering the output) to
allow Clear to be used a trigger for the
output pulse.
If the Clear pin is routinely being used to
trigger the output pulse, the A or B inputs
must be toggled as described above
before and between each Clear trigger
event.
Once triggered, as long as the output
remains high, all input transitions (except
overriding Clear) are ignored.
Overriding
Clear Mode:
If the Q output is high, it may be forced low
by bringing the clear input low.
