HIGH SPEED CMOS TIMER

The ALD555 Timer is a high performance monolithic Timing circuit built with advanced silicon Gate CMOS technology. It offers the benefits of high input impedance, thereby allowing smaller Timing capacitors and longer Timing cycle; high speed, with typical cycle time of 500ns; low power dissipation for battery operated environment; reduced supply current spikes, allowing smaller and lower cost decoupling capacitors. It is capable of producing accurate time delays and oscillations in both monostable and astable operation. It operates in the one-shot (mono- stable) mode or 50% duty cycle free running oscillation mode with a single resistor and one capacitor. The inputs and outputs are fully compatible with CMOS, NMOS or TTL Logic By Advanced Linear Devices Inc (ALD)
