LTC6993HS6-1#TRPBF

Multivibrators Overview

The LTC6993HS6-1#TRPBF is a monostable multivibrator from the TimerBlox family, housed in a 6-lead Plastic TSOT-23 package. It operates on a single supply voltage ranging from 2.25V to 5.5V with an operating temperature range of –40°C to 125°C. The device generates programmable output pulses with widths spanning from 1µs to 33.6 seconds. Pulse width is determined by a master oscillator frequency set via a single resistor and an internal clock divider. The part features rising-edge triggering without retrigger capability and provides a CMOS output driver capable of sourcing or sinking up to 20mA.

Multivibrators Feature Summary

• Generates precise one-shot output pulses triggered by a rising edge signal
• Configurable pulse width using a single external resistor and internal divider settings
• CMOS output stage supports high current drive for direct load interfacing
• Operates reliably across extended industrial temperature ranges

Multivibrators Applications

• Watchdog timer circuits requiring reliable timeout monitoring
• Frequency discriminators for signal analysis
• Missing pulse detection systems
• Envelope detection in communication receivers

Multivibrators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix #TRPBF indicates tape and reel packaging when ordering. Confirm the HS grade corresponds to the required –40°C to 125°C operating temperature range for your application environment. Ensure compatibility with the 6-lead TSOT-23 footprint during PCB layout. Check for any automotive qualification requirements if the design mandates AEC-Q100 compliance, as standard commercial grades may differ.

Multivibrators Selection Notes

Select this variant when a non-retriggerable rising-edge trigger response is required. The HS temperature grade ensures functionality in harsh environments exceeding standard industrial limits. Consider the DIV pin configuration for desired pulse width ranges and output polarity. Evaluate the low supply current consumption against battery-powered system constraints. Verify that the 20mA output drive capability meets the load requirements without additional buffering.

Multivibrators Part Context

This component belongs to the Analog Devices TimerBlox family of silicon timing devices. It shares functional similarities with other LTC6993 variants differing primarily in trigger polarity and retrigger capabilities. The HS designation specifically denotes the extended temperature performance tier within the SOT-23 package lineup. It serves as a compact alternative to discrete transistor-based one-shot circuits.

Multivibrators Replacement Considerations

LTC6993IS6-1#TRPBF offers identical electrical characteristics but with a restricted –40°C to 85°C operating temperature range.
