Improved parameters include low supply current, wide operating supply voltage range, low THRESHOLD, TRIGGER and RESET currents, no crowbarring of the supply current during output transitions, higher frequency performance and no requirement to decouple CONTROL VOLTAGE for stable operation. * Low Supply Current - ICM7555. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 60A - ICM7556. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 120A * Extremely Low Input Currents . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20pA * High Speed Operation . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1MHz Specifically, the ICM7555 and ICM7556 are stable controllers capable of producing accurate time delays or frequencies. The ICM7556 is a dual ICM7555, with the two timers operating independently of each other, sharing only V+ and GND. In the one shot mode, the pulse width of each circuit is precisely controlled by one external resistor and capacitor. For astable operation as an oscillator, the free running frequency and the duty cycle are both accurately controlled by two external resistors and one capacitor. Unlike the regular bipolar 555/6 devices, the CONTROL VOLTAGE terminal need not be decoupled with a capacitor. The circuits are triggered and reset on falling (negative) waveforms, and the output inverter can source or sink currents large enough to drive TTL loads, or provide minimal offsets to drive CMOS loads. * Guaranteed Supply Voltage Range . . . . . . . 2V to 18V * Temperature Stability . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.005%/oC at 25oC * Normal Reset Function - No Crowbarring of Supply During Output Transition * Can be Used with Higher Impedance Timing Elements than Regular 555/6 for Longer RC Time Constants * Timing from Microseconds through Hours * Operates in Both Astable and Monostable Modes * Adjustable Duty Cycle * High Output Source/Sink Driver can Drive TTL/CMOS Ordering Information * Outputs have Very Low Offsets, HI and LO PART NUMBER (BRAND) Applications * Precision Timing * Pulse Generation * Sequential Timing * Time Delay Generation * Pulse Width Modulation TEMP.

Due to the SCR structure inherent in the CMOS process used to fabricate these devices, connecting any terminal to a voltage greater than V+ +0.3V or less than V- -0.3V may cause destructive latchup. For this reason it is recommended that no inputs from external sources not operating from the same power supply be applied to the device before its power supply is established. In multiple supply systems, the supply of the ICM7555/6 must be turned on first. 2. JA is measured with the component mounted on an evaluation PC board in free air.

However, it is possible to effect economies in the external component count using the ICM7555/6. Because the bipolar 555/6 devices produce large crowbar currents in the output driver, it is necessary to decouple the power supply lines with a good capacitor close to the device. The 7555/6 devices produce no such transients. See Figure 1. The ICM7555/6 produces supply current spikes of only 2mA - 3mA instead of 300mA - 400mA and supply decoupling is normally not necessary. Also, in most instances, the CONTROL VOLTAGE decoupling capacitors are not required since the input impedance of the CMOS comparators on chip are very high. Thus, for many applications 2 capacitors can be saved using an ICM7555, and 3 capacitors with an ICM7556. 400 300 SE/NE555 200 100 0 ICM7555/56 0 200 400 TIME (ns) 600 800 FIGURE 1. SUPPLY CURRENT TRANSIENT COMPARED WITH A STANDARD BIPOLAR 555 DURING AN OUTPUT TRANSITION 4 ICM7555, ICM7556 Power Supply Considerations Monostable Operation Although the supply current consumed by the ICM7555/6 devices is very low, the total system supply current can be high unless the timing components are high impedance. Therefore, use high values for R and low values for C in Figures 2 and 3. In this mode of operation, the timer functions as a one-shot, see Figure 3. Initially the external capacitor (C) is held discharged by a transistor inside the timer. Upon application of a negative TRIGGER pulse to pin 2, the internal flip-flop is set which releases the short circuit across the external capacitor and drives the OUTPUT high. The voltage across the capacitor now increases exponentially with a time constant t = RAC. When the voltage across the capacitor equals 2/ V+, the comparator resets the flip-flop, which in turn dis3 charges the capacitor rapidly and also drives the OUTPUT to its low state. TRIGGER must return to a high state before the OUTPUT can return to a low state. Output Drive Capability The output driver consists of a CMOS inverter capable of driving most logic families including CMOS and TTL. As such, if driving CMOS, the output swing at all supply voltages will equal the supply voltage. At a supply voltage of 4.5V or more the ICM7555/6 will drive at least 2 standard TTL loads. tOUTPUT = -ln Astable Operation 1 8 TRIGGER 2 7 OUTPUT 3 6 RESET 4 5 ICM7555 CONTROL VOLTAGE Control Voltage The CONTROL VOLTAGE terminal permits the two trip voltages for the THRESHOLD and TRIGGER internal comparators to be controlled. This provides the possibility of oscillation frequency modulation in the astable mode or even inhibition of oscillation, depending on the applied voltage. In the monostable mode, delay times can be changed by varying the applied voltage to the CONTROL VOLTAGE pin. The duty cycle is controlled by the values of R A and RB, by the equation: D = ( R A + R B ) ( R A + 2R B ) VDD VDD 10K 8 TRIGGER 2 7 3 6 4 5 OUTPUT DISCHARGE THRESHOLD RESET ALTERNATE OUTPUT The RESET terminal is designed to have essentially the same trip voltage as the standard bipolar 555/6, i.e., 0.6V to 0.7V. At all supply voltages it represents an extremely high input impedance. The mode of operation of the RESET function is, however, much improved over the standard bipolar 555/6 in that it controls only the internal flip-flop, which in turn controls simultaneously the state of the OUTPUT and DISCHARGE pins. This avoids the multiple threshold problems sometimes encountered with slow falling edges in the bipolar devices. CONTROL VOLTAGE RESET R OPTIONAL CAPACITOR C FIGURE 2A.
