GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 74HC/HCT423 are high-speed Si-gate CMOS devices and are pin compatible with low power Schottky TTL (LSTTL). They are specified in compliance with JEDEC standard no. 7A. The 74HC/HCT423 are dual retriggerable monostable multivibrators with output pulse width control by two methods. The basic pulse time is programmed by selection of an external resistor (REXT) and capacitor

(CEXT). The external resistor and capacitor are normally connected as shown in Fig.6. Once triggered, the basic output pulse width may be extended by retriggering the gated active LOW-going edge input (nA) or the active HIGH-going edge input (nB). By repeating this process, the output pulse period (nQ = HIGH, nQ = LOW) can be made as long as desired. When nRD is LOW, it forces the nQ output LOW, the nQ output HIGH and also inhibits the triggering. Figures 7 and 8 illustrate pulse control by reset. The basic output pulse width is essentially determined by the values of the external timing components REXT and CEXT. For pulse widths, when CEXT < 10 000 pF, see Fig.9.
When CEXT > 10 000 pF, the typical output pulse width is defined as: tW = 0.45 × REXT × CEXT (typ.), where, tW = pulse width in ns; REXT = external resistor in kΩ; CEXT = external capacitor in pF. Schmitt-trigger action in the nA and nB inputs, makes the circuit highly tolerant to slower input rise and fall times. The “423” is identical to the “123” but cannot be triggered via the reset input.

CPD is used to determine the dynamic power dissipation (PD in µW): PD = CPD × VCC2 × fi + ∑ (CL × VCC2 × fo) + 0.75 × CEXT × VCC2 × fo + D × 16 × VCC where: fi = input frequency in MHz fo = output frequency in MHz D = duty factor in % ∑ (CL × VCC2 × fo) = sum of outputs CL = output load capacitance in pF VCC = supply voltage in V CEXT = timing capacitance in pF 2. For HC the condition is VI = GND to VCC For HCT the condition is VI = GND to VCC − 1.5 V

Notes 1. For other REXT and CEXT combinations see Fig.9. If CEXT > 10 pF, the next formula is valid: tW = K × REXT × CEXT (typ.) where: tW
= output pulse width in ns; REXT = external resistor in kΩ; CEXT = external capacitor in pF; = constant = 0.45 for VCC = 5.0 V and 0.55 for VCC = 2.0 V. K The inherent test jig and pin capacitance at pins 15 and 7 (nREXT/CEXT) is approximately 7 pF. 2. The time to retrigger the monostable multivibrator depends on the values of REXT and CEXT. The output pulse width will only be extended when the time between the active-going edges of the trigger input pulses meets the minimum retrigger time. If CEXT > 10 pF, the next formula (at VCC = 5.0 V) for the set-up time of a retrigger pulse is valid: trt = 30 + 0.19 × REXT × CEXT0.9 + 13 × REXT1.05 (typ.) where, trt
= retrigger time in ns; CEXT = external capacitor in pF; REXT = external resistor in kΩ. The inherent test jig and pin capacitance at pins 15 and 7 (nREXT/CEXT) is 7 pF. 3. When the device is powered-up, initiate the device via a reset pulse, when CEXT < 50 pF.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Power-up considerations When the monostable is powered-up it may produce an output pulse, with a pulse width defined by the values of RX and CX, this output pulse can be eliminated using the circuit shown in Fig.11.

Power-down considerations A large capacitor (CX) may cause problems when powering-down the monostable due to the energy stored in this capacitor. When a system containing this device is powered-down or a rapid decrease of VCC to zero occurs, the monostable may substain damage, due to the capacitor discharging through the input protection diodes. To avoid this possibility, use a damping diode (DX) preferably a germanium or Schottky-type diode able to withstand large current surges and connect as shown in Fig.12.

SOLDERING
Introduction There is no soldering method that is ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when through-hole and surface mounted components are mixed on one printed-circuit board. However, wave soldering is not always suitable for surface mounted ICs, or for printed-circuits with high population densities. In these situations reflow soldering is often used. This text gives a very brief insight to a complex technology. A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in our “Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages” (order code 9398 652 90011).
DIP SOLDERING BY DIPPING OR BY WAVE The maximum permissible temperature of the solder is 260 °C; solder at this temperature must not be in contact with the joint for more than 5 seconds. The total contact time of successive solder waves must not exceed 5 seconds. The device may be mounted up to the seating plane, but the temperature of the plastic body must not exceed the specified maximum storage temperature (Tstg max). If the printed-circuit board has been pre-heated, forced cooling may be necessary immediately after soldering to keep the temperature within the permissible limit.
REPAIRING SOLDERED JOINTS Apply a low voltage soldering iron (less than 24 V) to the lead(s) of the package, below the seating plane or not more than 2 mm above it. If the temperature of the soldering iron bit is less than 300 °C it may remain in contact for up to 10 seconds. If the bit temperature is between 300 and 400 °C, contact may be up to 5 seconds.
SO REFLOW SOLDERING Reflow soldering techniques are suitable for all SO packages. Reflow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of fine solder particles, flux and binding agent) to be applied to the printed-circuit board by screen printing, stencilling or pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement.
Several techniques exist for reflowing; for example, thermal conduction by heated belt. Dwell times vary between 50 and 300 seconds depending on heating method. Typical reflow temperatures range from 215 to 250 °C. Preheating is necessary to dry the paste and evaporate the binding agent. Preheating duration: 45 minutes at 45 °C.
WAVE SOLDERING Wave soldering techniques can be used for all SO packages if the following conditions are observed:
- A double-wave (a turbulent wave with high upward pressure followed by a smooth laminar wave) soldering technique should be used.
- The longitudinal axis of the package footprint must be parallel to the solder flow.
- The package footprint must incorporate solder thieves at the downstream end.
During placement and before soldering, the package must be fixed with a droplet of adhesive. The adhesive can be applied by screen printing, pin transfer or syringe dispensing. The package can be soldered after the adhesive is cured. Maximum permissible solder temperature is 260 °C, and maximum duration of package immersion in solder is 10 seconds, if cooled to less than 150 °C within 6 seconds. Typical dwell time is 4 seconds at 250 °C. A mildly-activated flux will eliminate the need for removal of corrosive residues in most applications.
REPAIRING SOLDERED JOINTS Fix the component by first soldering two diagonallyopposite end leads. Use only a low voltage soldering iron (less than 24 V) applied to the flat part of the lead. Contact time must be limited to 10 seconds at up to 300 °C. When using a dedicated tool, all other leads can be soldered in one operation within 2 to 5 seconds between 270 and 320 °C.
