TLC555N

HGSEMI · Timers / Counters · DIP-8

TLC555N from HGSEMI, in a DIP-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 GND power_in Ground; all voltages are measured relative to this pin.
2 TRIGGER input Trigger input that sets the flip-flop and drives output high when below 1/3 VCC; trigger current is 10 pA max at VCC=5V.
3 OUTPUT output Timer output, TTL/CMOS compatible at 5V; VOL 0.4 V max at 3.2 mA sink and VOH 4.0 V min at -2 mA at VCC=5V.
4 RESET input Active-low reset that forces output low and turns the discharge switch on; reset voltage is 0.4 to 1.2 V at VCC=5V, input range -0.3 to VCC+0.3 V.
5 CONTROL VOLTAGE input Control voltage input that overrides the 2/3 VCC threshold level; 3.33 V typical at VCC=5V.
6 THRESHOLD input Threshold input that resets the flip-flop when above 2/3 VCC; threshold current is 10 pA max at VCC=5V.
7 DISCHARGE passive Open-drain discharge transistor output for the timing capacitor; saturation voltage 400 mV max at 10 mA, VCC=5V.
8 VDD power_in Positive supply voltage, recommended 4.5 to 15 V, absolute maximum 15 V.
