Product Overview
The SN74LS123N is a monostable multivibrator integrated circuit (IC) that is used to produce a single pulse output in response to a trigger input. It is a type of flip-flop circuit that can be used to generate a pulse of a specific duration when triggered by an input signal.
The monostable multivibrator has two stable states, which are referred to as the "set" state and the "reset" state. When the input trigger is applied, the circuit switches from the set state to the reset state, and then back to the set state after a predetermined time delay.
This time delay is determined by an external resistor and capacitor connected to the IC. The SN74LS123N is a 74LS series IC, which means it is a low-power Schottky TTL (transistor-transistor logic) device. It is commonly used in a variety of applications, including pulse generation, timing, and pulse-width modulation.
