AI
The 74HCT221 is a dual non-retriggerable monostable multivibrator. Each multivibrator features edge-triggered inputs (nAand nB), either of which can be used as an enable input. Pulse triggering occurs at a particular voltage level and is not directly related to the transition time of the input pulse. Schmitt-trigger input circuitry for the nB inputs allow jitter-free triggering from inputs with slow transition rates, providing the circuit with excellent noise immunity. Once triggered, the outputs (nQ, nQ) are independent of further transitions of nAand nB inputs. The output pulse width is defined by the following relationship:
