## **Description** 

The TS556 is a dual CMOS timer which offers a very low consumption: 

(Icc(TYP) TS556 = 220 µA at VCC = +5 V versus Icc(TYP) NE556 = 6 mA), and high frequency: (f(max.) TS556 = 2.7 MHz versus f(max.) NE556 = 0.1 MHz). 

In both monostable and astable modes, timing remains very accurate. 

The TS556 provides reduced supply current spikes during output transitions, which enable the use of lower decoupling capacitors compared to those required by bipolar NE556.

Due to the high input impedance (10[12] Ω), timing capacitors can also be minimized.

1. Short-circuits can cause excessive heating. These values are typical and specified for a single layer PCB. 

2. Short-circuits can cause excessive heating. These values are typical and specified for a four layers PCB. 

3. Human body model: a 100 pF capacitor is charged to the specified voltage, then discharged through a 1.5kΩ resistor between two pins of the device. This is done for all couples of connected pin combinations while the other pins are floating. 

4. Machine model: a 200 pF capacitor is charged to the specified voltage, then discharged directly between two pins of the device with no external series resistor (internal resistor < 5 Ω). This is done for all couples of connected pin combinations while the other pins remain floating. 

5. Charged device model: all pins plus package are charged together to the specified voltage and then discharged directly to the ground.

**Application information** 

## **4 Application information** 

## **4.1 Monostable operation** 

In the monostable mode, the timer operates like a one-shot generator. Referring to figure 2, the external capacitor is initially held discharged by a transistor inside the timer, as shown in _Figure 4_ . 

## **Figure 4. Application schematic**

The circuit triggers on a negative-going input signal when the level reaches 1/3 VCC. Once triggered, the circuit remains in this state until the set time has elapsed, even if it is triggered again during this interval. The duration of the output HIGH state is given by t = 1.1 R x C. 

It can be noticed that since the charge rate and the threshold level of the comparator are both directly proportional to the supply voltage, the timing interval is independent of the supply. Applying a negative pulse simultaneously to the Reset terminal (pin 4) and the Trigger terminal (pin 2) during the timing cycle discharges the external capacitor and causes the cycle to start over. The timing cycle now starts on the positive edge of the reset pulse. While the reset pulse is applied, the output is driven to the LOW state. 

When a negative trigger pulse is applied to pin 2, the flip-flop is set, releasing the short circuit across the external capacitor and driving the output HIGH. The voltage across the capacitor increases exponentially with the time constant τ = R x C. 

When the voltage across the capacitor equals 2/3 VCC, the comparator resets the flip-flop which then discharges the capacitor rapidly and drives the output to its LOW state. _Figure 5_ shows the actual waveforms generated in this mode of operation. When Reset is not used, it should be tied high to avoid any possible or false triggering.

**TS556** 

**Application information** 

## **4.2 Astable operation** 

When the circuit is connected as shown in _Figure 6_ (pins 2 and 6 connected) it triggers itself and runs as a multivibrator. The external capacitor charges through RA and RB and discharges through RB only. Thus the duty cycle may be precisely set by the ratio of these two resistors. 

In the astable mode of operation, C charges and discharges between 1/3 VCC and 2/3 VCC. As in the triggered mode, the charge and discharge times and therefore frequency, are independent of the supply voltage.

_Figure 7_ shows actual waveforms generated in this mode of operation. 

The charge time (output HIGH) is given by: 

t1 = 0.693 (RA + RB) C 

and the discharge time (output LOW) by: 

t2 = 0.693 x  RB  x C 

Thus the total period T is given by: 

T = t1 + t2 = 0.693 (RA + 2RB) C 

The frequency of oscillation is then:
