One Shot / Monostable Circuits
Last Updated on: Friday, March 12, 2010 12:07 PM


Circuits Designed by Dave Johnson, P.E. :
  • D-FLIP/FLOP ONE SHOT CIRCUITS
    Yes you can use cheap D flip/flop logic circuits as nice one-shot pulse generators. This schematic shows how the popular CD4013 and the CD74HC74 can be used to generate pulses ranging from nanoseconds to seconds. (added 12/04)
  • Delayed Pulse Generator
    This circuit generates a short 10ms pulse 15 minutes after a “start” pushbutton switch is activated. 
    (added 12/04)
  • PUSHBUTTON ONESHOT AND LATCH
    This circuit uses a single IC to convert a noisy pushbutton switch signal into a clean pulse or a sustained push on-push off signal. It can operate from 3v to 18v.

555 Timer MonoStable Circuit using Pushbutton - The two circuits above illustrate using the 555 timer to close a relay for a predetermined amount of time by pressing a momentary N/O push button. The circuit on the left can be used for long time periods where the push button can be pressed and released before the end of the timing period. For shorter periods, a capacitor can be used to isolate the switch....(electronic schematic / circuit added 4/02)

Astable Flip Flop Circuits (techlib) - Several circuits here.  The familiar astable flip-flop circuit is a handy configuration for making flashers or generating squarewaves. Here is a typical alternating LED flasher with the LEDs in the emitters instead of collectors as is normally done. The bias resistors are directly connected...(added 04/05/06)

Circuit forms adjustable Bipolar Clamp - 11/22/01 EDN-Design Ideas: The easy way to clamp a signal to a given value is to use two zener diodes, connected back-to-back. This method has several disadvantages. The accuracy of the clamping depends on the tolerance of the zener diodes, and the clamping is not adjustable, except by changing diodes. The circuit in Figure 1 is a bipolar clamper with a range of 1 to 10V, with the clamping level a fun.....(design idea added 1/05)

Controller IC & one shot form resonant Controller - 11/28/02 EDN-Design Ideas: Resonant power supplies are popular because of high efficiency, low noise, and compactness. You can implement a resonant buck or boost converter using a single switch. The regulation of the output in such a converter derives from using a constant on or off time and a variable frequency. The UC1864 controller IC (Texas Instruments, www.....(design idea added 1/05)

Delay Line Aids in One Shot Simulations - 02/05/04 EDN-Design Ideas: In low-noise analog circuits, a high-gain amplifier serves at the input to increase the SNR. The input signal level determines the input-stage gain; low-level signals require the highest gain. It is also standard practice in low-noise analog-signal processing to make the circuit's bandwidth as narrow as possible to pass only the useful input-signal spectrum. (added 10/05)

But, if the resetting fails, you need to.....(design idea added 3/03)
