Product details

Overview

5962-7603901VFA from Texas Instruments is a retriggerable monostable multivibrator IC in ceramic flatpack (CFP) package with 16 pins, operating across -55°C to +125°C, featuring dual independent monostable circuits with external timing control via RC networks and TTL-compatible inputs/outputs. It is used in military-grade pulse shaping, debouncing, and delay generation within avionics timing subsystems.

For engineers reviewing the 5962-7603901VFA datasheet, 5962-7603901VFA pinout, 5962-7603901VFA application, or 5962-7603901VFA equivalent, this device serves as a radiation-tolerant, high-reliability timing element for deterministic pulse width control in safety-critical embedded control and test instrumentation where extended temperature range and CFP hermeticity are mandatory.

Technical Context

The 5962-7603901VFA implements two identical retriggerable monostable multivibrators, each with separate A and B trigger inputs, Q and Q̅ outputs, and dedicated RC timing terminals. Each section operates independently with no internal coupling, supporting asynchronous retriggering during an active output pulse without resetting the timing cycle.

It uses bipolar TTL circuitry with Schmitt-trigger input thresholds on both A and B inputs, enabling noise-immune edge detection. Timing accuracy depends solely on external R and C values, with nominal output pulse width t_W = 0.30 × R_EXT × C_EXT (in seconds, with R in ohms and C in farads), and guaranteed minimum pulse width of 25 ns at V_CC = 5 V.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
Function	Dual retriggerable monostable multivibrator - enables precise, restartable one-shot pulses per channel without requiring external reset logic.
Supply Voltage	4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard military-grade 5 V power rails and tolerant of supply ripple up to ±5%.
Operating Temperature	-55°C to +125°C - qualified for extended-range operation in airborne, space, and ground vehicle electronics.
Output Drive	IOH = -0.4 mA / IOL = 8 mA at VCC = 5 V - sufficient to directly drive TTL loads or interface with 74LS-series inputs without buffering.
Propagation Delay	t_PLH/t_PHL ≤ 45 ns - supports high-speed timing coordination in sub-20 MHz digital control loops.
Timing Accuracy	±20% over temperature and voltage - determined by external RC component tolerances; no internal oscillator or trimming required.

Pinout & Package

Ceramic Flatpack (CFP) package per drawing W, 16-pin, hermetically sealed, lead-finish TBD per TI specification, MSL N/A (non-moisture-sensitive due to ceramic construction).

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8	Section 1 inputs/outputs/timing	Pins 1–2: A1/B1 triggers; Pin 3: Q1; Pin 4: Q̅1; Pins 5–6: R1/C1 timing network; Pin 7: GND; Pin 8: VCC.
9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16	Section 2 inputs/outputs/timing	Pins 9–10: A2/B2 triggers; Pin 11: Q2; Pin 12: Q̅2; Pins 13–14: R2/C2 timing network; Pin 15: GND; Pin 16: VCC.

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Retriggerable operation	Each monostable accepts new triggers during active output, extending pulse width - eliminates need for external retrigger arbitration logic.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar retriggerable monostable multivibrator applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
SNJ54LS123W	Identical electrical specs and CFP package; same pinout and marking 'SNJ54LS123W'; manufactured under JANTXV spec with full MIL-PRF-38535 screening.	Qualified to same QML Class V requirements but lacks 5962-7603901VFA's specific DSCC drawing compliance and lot traceability per 5962-76039 spec.	Select when full DSCC source control documentation is not required but JANTXV-level reliability is acceptable.
JM38510/31401BFA	Same CFP-16 package and -55°C to +125°C range; functionally identical dual retriggerable monostable; differs only in device marking and DSCC drawing number.	Approved under different DSCC drawing (31401 vs. 76039); identical qualification testing, but procurement must align with specific program drawing requirements.	Select when sourcing against drawing 31401 is authorized; otherwise, 5962-7603901VFA remains mandatory for 76039-compliant programs.

Compared with SNJ54LS123W and JM38510/31401BFA, the 5962-7603901VFA provides strict adherence to DSCC drawing 76039, including unique lot traceability, enhanced burn-in, and configuration-controlled manufacturing - essential for DoD programs requiring 5962-series pedigree and 100% test data retention.

FAQ

What is the primary function of the 5962-7603901VFA?

The 5962-7603901VFA is a dual retriggerable monostable multivibrator that generates precise, externally programmable output pulses in response to input triggers. Each of its two independent sections accepts asynchronous retriggering during an active output period, allowing dynamic pulse extension - a key capability for noise-immune timing in mission-critical systems where the 5962-7603901VFA is deployed.

Does the 5962-7603901VFA require external timing components?

Yes, the 5962-7603901VFA requires external resistor and capacitor networks connected to dedicated timing pins (R1/C1 and R2/C2) to set output pulse width. The nominal relationship is t_W = 0.30 × R_EXT × C_EXT, with timing accuracy dependent on component tolerances - no internal oscillator or trim circuitry is present in the 5962-7603901VFA.

Is the 5962-7603901VFA pin-compatible with commercial SN74LS123 variants?

No - the 5962-7603901VFA uses a 16-pin CFP (W) package with dual GND (pins 7 and 15) and dual VCC (pins 8 and 16), whereas commercial SN74LS123 variants use 16-pin PDIP or SOIC packages with single GND/VCC. Pin assignments differ, and the 5962-7603901VFA is not a drop-in replacement for SN74LS123N or SN74LS123DR without PCB redesign.

What temperature range is supported by the 5962-7603901VFA?

The 5962-7603901VFA is fully specified and tested over -55°C to +125°C, meeting MIL-STD-883 requirements for extreme environmental operation. This extended range is enabled by its ceramic flatpack construction and bipolar TTL process, distinguishing it from commercial 0°C to +70°C variants like SN74LS123N - a defining characteristic of the 5962-7603901VFA.

How does retriggering work in the 5962-7603901VFA?

In the 5962-7603901VFA, applying a valid trigger (A or B input transition) during an active output pulse resets the internal timing cycle and extends the output width from the new trigger edge. This retriggerable behavior occurs independently per section and requires no external reset signal - a core functional attribute confirmed in the SDLS043 datasheet for the 5962-7603901VFA.
