NA556DR

Texas Instruments · Timers / Clock Oscillators · SOIC-14

NA556DR from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-14. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 1DISCH output Timer 1 discharge pin. Open-collector output used to discharge the external timing capacitor C_T when the timer output is low.
2 1THRES input Timer 1 threshold input. End-of-timing input; when THRES > CONT (nominally 2/3 Vcc) the output goes low and the discharge transistor turns on.
3 1CONT input Timer 1 control voltage. Sets the comparator thresholds (nominally 2/3 Vcc); can be tied to a bypass capacitor for noise immunity or driven to modulate the timing.
4 1RESET input Timer 1 active-low reset input. Overrides all other inputs; forces output and discharge low. Tie to Vcc when unused. V_RESET typ 0.7 V, max 1 V.
5 1OUT output Timer 1 output. High-current TTL-compatible timer output; can sink or source up to 200 mA.
6 1TRIG input Timer 1 trigger input. Start-of-timing input; when TRIG < 1/2 CONT (nominally 1/3 Vcc) the output goes high and the discharge transistor turns off.
7 GND power_in Ground / device negative supply reference.
8 2TRIG input Timer 2 trigger input. Start-of-timing input; when TRIG < 1/2 CONT (nominally 1/3 Vcc) the output goes high and the discharge transistor turns off.
9 2OUT output Timer 2 output. High-current TTL-compatible timer output; can sink or source up to 200 mA.
10 2RESET input Timer 2 active-low reset input. Overrides all other inputs; forces output and discharge low. Tie to Vcc when unused.
11 2CONT input Timer 2 control voltage. Sets the comparator thresholds (nominally 2/3 Vcc); can be tied to a bypass capacitor for noise immunity or driven to modulate the timing.
12 2THRES input Timer 2 threshold input. End-of-timing input; when THRES > CONT (nominally 2/3 Vcc) the output goes low and the discharge transistor turns on.
13 2DISCH output Timer 2 discharge pin. Open-collector output used to discharge the external timing capacitor C_T when the timer output is low.
14 VCC power_in Positive supply voltage. Recommended 4.5 V to 16 V (NA556/NE556/SA556); absolute maximum 18 V. Bypass to GND with a local ceramic capacitor.
