Using A 555 Timer As A One-Shot (Monostable Multivibrator) : R 4.7k Dstm1

The document describes a 555 timer circuit configured as a one-shot (monostable multivibrator). When the trigger input goes low, the output will go high for 1.1RC seconds. For this example, R is 4.7kΩ and C is 2.2μF, so the output will remain high for 114 milliseconds. The circuit is triggered by a digital clock and analyzed through transient analysis for 15 milliseconds.

Using a 555 Timer as a One-Shot (monostable multivibrator)


D

Purpose: A 555 Timer circuit can be easily configured as a one-shot (monostable multivibrator) by adding an external resistor and capacitor. When the Trigger input (pin 5) goes momentarily LOW, the output (pin 3) of the 555 timer will go HIGH for 1.1RC seconds. The one-shot is "non-retriggerable", so additional LOW pulses on the Trigger input will be ignored until the output is LOW again. Analysis: For this example, 1.1RC = 1.1(4.7k)(2.2u) = 114 ms, so a transient analysis will be performed until 15ms.

Notes: 1) Best results are obtained using R > 1k. 2) A Digital Clock from SOURCE library was used to trigger the one-shot. 3) OFFPAGE symbols (<<C on the toolbar) were used to give the trigger, capacitor, and output voltages easily recognizable names. 4) Voltage markers (from the PSPICE menu) were added so that Trigger, Cap, and OneShot would be automatically graphed after analysis. 5) The 5V power supply was connected using an OFFPAGE symbol. This is unnecessary, but is often convenient since the supply voltage may be connected to many points in the circuit.
