74HC123D from Nexperia, in a SOIC-16. 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 | 1A | input | Negative-edge triggered input for monostable 1 (Schmitt-trigger input). A HIGH-to-LOW transition on 1A triggers a pulse when 1B is HIGH and 1RD is HIGH. |
| 2 | 1B | input | Positive-edge triggered input for monostable 1 (Schmitt-trigger input). A LOW-to-HIGH transition on 1B triggers a pulse when 1A is LOW and 1RD is HIGH. |
| 3 | 1RD | input | Direct reset (active LOW) and positive-edge triggered input for monostable 1. Driving LOW terminates the output pulse; a LOW-to-HIGH transition can also trigger a pulse. |
| 4 | 1Q | output | Active LOW inverted output of monostable 1. Complement of 1Q; goes HIGH during the timed output pulse. |
| 5 | 2Q | output | Active HIGH output of monostable 2. Goes HIGH for the programmed pulse width when triggered. |
| 6 | 2CEXT | passive | External timing capacitor connection for monostable 2. Connect CEXT between this pin and 2REXT/CEXT (pin 7); pulse width = K x REXT x CEXT. |
| 7 | 2REXT/CEXT | passive | External timing resistor and capacitor connection for monostable 2. REXT ties from this pin to VCC (2 kOhm to 1000 kOhm typical); CEXT ties from this pin to 2CEXT (pin 6). |
| 8 | GND | power_in | Ground reference (0 V). |
| 9 | 2A | input | Negative-edge triggered input for monostable 2 (Schmitt-trigger input). A HIGH-to-LOW transition on 2A triggers a pulse when 2B is HIGH and 2RD is HIGH. |
| 10 | 2B | input | Positive-edge triggered input for monostable 2 (Schmitt-trigger input). A LOW-to-HIGH transition on 2B triggers a pulse when 2A is LOW and 2RD is HIGH. |
| 11 | 2RD | input | Direct reset (active LOW) and positive-edge triggered input for monostable 2. Driving LOW terminates the output pulse; a LOW-to-HIGH transition can also trigger a pulse. |
| 12 | 2Q | output | Active LOW inverted output of monostable 2. Complement of 2Q; goes HIGH during the timed output pulse. |
| 13 | 1Q | output | Active HIGH output of monostable 1. Goes HIGH for the programmed pulse width when triggered. |
| 14 | 1CEXT | passive | External timing capacitor connection for monostable 1. Connect CEXT between this pin and 1REXT/CEXT (pin 15); pulse width = K x REXT x CEXT. |
| 15 | 1REXT/CEXT | passive | External timing resistor and capacitor connection for monostable 1. REXT ties from this pin to VCC (2 kOhm to 1000 kOhm typical); CEXT ties from this pin to 1CEXT (pin 14). |
| 16 | VCC | power_in | Supply voltage. 2.0 V to 6.0 V (74HC123) or 4.5 V to 5.5 V (74HCT123). Absolute maximum 7 V. |

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:
| File | Size | Use it when |
|---|---|---|
74hc123d.step |
217 KB | You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards. |

2.0 MB | You want the part with 74HC123D already on it. |
The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 513 faces against 267 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
