Important notice
Dear Customer,
On 7 February 2017 the former NXP Standard Product business became a new company with the
tradename
Nexperia.
Nexperia is an industry leading supplier of Discrete, Logic and PowerMOS
semiconductors with its focus on the automotive, industrial, computing, consumer and wearable
application markets
In data sheets and application notes which still contain NXP or Philips Semiconductors references, use
the references to Nexperia, as shown below.
Instead of http://www.nxp.com, http://www.philips.com/ or http://www.semiconductors.philips.com/,
use

74HCT221
Dual non-retriggerable monostable multivibrator with reset
Rev. 3 — 26 October 2016
Product data sheet
1. General description
The 74HCT221 is a dual non-retriggerable monostable multivibrator. Each multivibrator
features edge-triggered inputs (nA and nB), either of which can be used as an enable
input. Pulse triggering occurs at a particular voltage level and is not directly related to the
transition time of the input pulse. Schmitt-trigger input circuitry for the nB inputs allow
jitter-free triggering from inputs with slow transition rates, providing the circuit with
excellent noise immunity. Once triggered, the outputs (nQ, nQ) are independent of further
transitions of nA and nB inputs. The output pulse width is defined by the following
relationship: t
W
= 0.7
C
EXT
R
EXT
The output pulses can be terminated by the active
LOW reset inputs (nRD). 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 the external timing components. Inputs include
clamp diodes. This enables the use of current limiting resistors to interface inputs to
voltages in excess of V
CC
.
2. Features and benefits
