NE556M

HGSEMI · Timers / Clock Oscillators · SOP-14

NE556M from HGSEMI, in a SOP-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 DIS1 output Discharge pin for timer 1. Open-collector output that discharges the external timing capacitor when the internal flip-flop is in the reset state.
2 THR1 input Threshold input for timer 1. When the voltage on this pin exceeds 2/3 VCC, the internal flip-flop is reset, ending the timing interval.
3 OUT1 output Output of timer 1. Push-pull output capable of sourcing or sinking up to 200 mA; swings between near-ground and near-VCC.
4 RST1 input Reset input for timer 1 (active low). Pulling this pin below ~0.7V forces the output low and discharges the timing capacitor regardless of other inputs. Tie to VCC when unused.
5 CON1 input Control voltage input for timer 1. Allows direct access to the 2/3 VCC internal reference divider to modify timing thresholds or perform pulse-width modulation. Bypass to GND with 0.01 uF if unused.
6 TRG1 input Trigger input for timer 1 (active low). A negative-going pulse below 1/3 VCC starts the timing interval and drives the output high.
7 GND power_in Device ground reference. Common return for both timers and all internal circuitry.
8 TRG2 input Trigger input for timer 2 (active low). A negative-going pulse below 1/3 VCC starts the timing interval and drives the output high.
9 CON2 input Control voltage input for timer 2. Allows direct access to the 2/3 VCC internal reference divider to modify timing thresholds or perform pulse-width modulation. Bypass to GND with 0.01 uF if unused.
10 RST2 input Reset input for timer 2 (active low). Pulling this pin below ~0.7V forces the output low and discharges the timing capacitor regardless of other inputs. Tie to VCC when unused.
11 OUT2 output Output of timer 2. Push-pull output capable of sourcing or sinking up to 200 mA; swings between near-ground and near-VCC.
12 THR2 input Threshold input for timer 2. When the voltage on this pin exceeds 2/3 VCC, the internal flip-flop is reset, ending the timing interval.
13 DIS2 output Discharge pin for timer 2. Open-collector output that discharges the external timing capacitor when the internal flip-flop is in the reset state.
14 VCC power_in Positive supply voltage, 4.5V to 16V. Powers both internal timer sections; bypass locally with a 0.1 uF ceramic to GND.
