CD4047 Datasheet

The CD4047B is capable of operating in either the monostable or astable mode. The IC is made by using the Complementary MOS (CMOS) technology, integrated with p-type and n-type enhancement moe transistors. It requires an external capacitor and an external resistor (between pins 2 and 3) to determine the output pulse width in the monostable mode, and the output frequency in the astable mode. Astable operation is enabled by a high level on the astable input or a low level on the astable input. Monostable operation is obtained when the device is triggered by LOW-to-HIGH transition at + trigger input or HIGH-to-LOW transition at − trigger input. The output of the IC always comes in TTL which makes it easy to work with other TTL devices and microcontrollers.

Monostable Multivibrator

A monostable multivibrator (MMV), often called a one-shot multivibrator, is a pulse generator circuit in which the duration of the pulse is determined by the R-C network, connected externally to the 555 timers. In such a vibrator, one state of output is stable while the other is quasi-stable (unstable). For auto-triggering of output from a quasi-stable state to a stable state, energy is stored by an externally connected capaci­tor to a reference level. The time taken in storage determines the pulse width.

Astable Multivibrator

An astable multivibrator is a free-running oscillator that switches continuously between its two unstable states. With no external signal applied, the transistors alternately switch from cutoff to saturation state at a frequency that RC time constants of the coupling circuit determine. If these time constants are equal (R and C are equal) then a square wave will generate with a frequency of 1/1.4 RxC. Hence, an astable multivibrator is also a pulse generator or a square wave generator.
