Product details
Overview
CD4098BPW from Texas Instruments is a dual monostable multivibrator IC in 16-pin TSSOP package, operating over -55°C to +125°C, with CMOS-compatible input thresholds, independent trigger and reset control per section, and propagation delay of 300 ns typical at 5 V. It serves as a precision timing element in digital logic systems requiring retriggerable or non-retriggerable one-shot pulses.
For engineers reviewing the CD4098BPW datasheet, CD4098BPW pinout, CD4098BPW application, or CD4098BPW equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual independent monostable architecture, TTL/CMOS input compatibility, temperature range suitability for industrial environments, and TSSOP-16 footprint constraints for high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The CD4098BPW implements two identical, electrically isolated monostable multivibrators in a single IC. Each section features separate A and B trigger inputs (with Schmitt-trigger hysteresis), an active-low reset (R̅), and complementary Q and Q̅ outputs. Timing is set externally via RC networks connected to pins 1–2 (Section 1) and pins 13–14 (Section 2).
It operates from 3 V to 18 V supply, exhibits rail-to-rail output swing, and maintains stable pulse width across voltage and temperature due to CMOS design. The device is functionally equivalent to MC14528 but differs in pin assignment and internal threshold referencing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 3 V to 18 V - Enables direct interface with both 5 V TTL and 12 V industrial logic without level shifting. |
| Operating Temperature | -55°C to +125°C - Qualified for extended industrial and military-grade environmental operation. |
| Pulse Width Accuracy | ±10% typical - Determined by external R and C values; supports repeatable timing within tight tolerances. |
| Propagation Delay | 300 ns @ 5 V - Ensures fast response for high-speed digital timing applications such as pulse shaping and debouncing. |
| Input Threshold | VDD/2 ± 0.5 V - Schmitt-trigger inputs provide noise immunity and clean edge detection on slow or noisy signals. |
| Output Drive | ±4.2 mA @ 10 V - Sufficient to directly drive multiple CMOS loads or small LED indicators without buffering. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-16 (PW) package: 4.4 mm × 5.0 mm body, 0.65 mm lead pitch, 1.2 mm max height, exposed pad not present, RoHS-compliant NIPDAU finish, MSL Level-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2 | Section 1 Timing RC | Connect external resistor and capacitor to set monostable pulse width for first multivibrator. |
| 3, 4 | Section 1 Trigger Inputs (A, B) | A and B are ANDed internally; either can initiate pulse; Schmitt-trigger inputs reject noise. |
| 5 | Section 1 Reset (Active-Low) | Asynchronous clear of Section 1 output; overrides ongoing pulse regardless of timing state. |
| 6, 7 | Section 1 Outputs (Q, Q̅) | Complementary logic-level outputs; Q active-high during pulse, Q̅ inverted. |
| 8 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuitry and I/O; must be low-impedance connection. |
| 9, 10 | Section 2 Outputs (Q, Q̅) | Complementary outputs for second independent monostable section. |
| 11 | Section 2 Reset (Active-Low) | Independent asynchronous reset for Section 2 only. |
| 12, 13 | Section 2 Trigger Inputs (A, B) | AND-gated Schmitt-trigger inputs for Section 2; identical functionality to Pins 3–4. |
| 14, 15 | Section 2 Timing RC | External R/C network sets pulse width for second monostable section independently. |
| 16 | VDD | Positive supply rail; decoupling capacitor (0.1 µF) required near this pin for stable operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent monostables | Enables two synchronized or isolated timing functions on one chip-reduces board space and component count. |
| Retriggerable and non-retriggerable modes | Configured via external RC network grounding; supports flexible pulse extension or fixed-width timing. |
| Wide supply range (3–18 V) | Eliminates need for dedicated voltage regulators in mixed-voltage systems; compatible with legacy 15 V designs. |
| CMOS input compatibility | Accepts TTL, CMOS, and high-impedance signal sources without pull-ups or level translators. |
| High noise immunity | Schmitt-trigger inputs with 1.5 V hysteresis suppress false triggering from EMI or contact bounce. |
Applications
| Industrial Control Sequencing | Microcontroller Input Debouncing |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual monostable multivibrator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CD4098BPWR | Same die and electrical specs; differs only in tape-and-reel packaging (2000 pcs/reel vs. CD4098BPW's obsolete status and unspecified SPQ). | Preferred for automated SMT production; CD4098BPW is obsolete and unavailable in standard reels. | Select CD4098BPWR for new designs requiring volume procurement and consistent reel delivery. |
| MC14528BDR2G | Functionally identical dual monostable but uses different pinout (SOIC-16); lacks Schmitt-trigger inputs on B inputs; wider propagation delay variation (±25%). | Requires PCB layout change; suitable only when timing tolerance >20% is acceptable and Schmitt noise rejection is not critical. | Choose only if legacy MC14528B footprint exists and redesign is impractical; verify timing margins under worst-case VDD/temp. |
Compared with CD4098BPW, CD4098BPWR offers identical performance with guaranteed supply chain support, while MC14528BDR2G trades pin compatibility for reduced noise immunity and looser timing accuracy-making CD4098BPWR the recommended path for continuity and reliability.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the CD4098BPW?
The CD4098BPW is not a clocked device and has no maximum operating frequency specification. Its usable timing range spans from approximately 1 µs to 100 s per monostable section, limited only by external RC component tolerances and leakage. Pulse repetition rate depends on recovery time after each output transition, typically <100 kHz for short pulses at 5 V. For the CD4098BPW, timing stability is governed by resistor and capacitor quality-not internal oscillator limits.
Is CD4098BPW pin-compatible with CD4098BE or CD4098BM?
No-CD4098BPW (TSSOP-16) shares identical pin numbering and function mapping with CD4098BPWR but differs physically from CD4098BE (PDIP-16) and CD4098BM (SOIC-16). While electrical pin functions match across packages, mechanical compatibility requires matching footprint: CD4098BPW cannot mount on PDIP or SOIC pads. The CD4098BPW pinout matches TI's PW package drawing PW0016A exactly.
Does CD4098BPW support retriggerable operation?
Yes-the CD4098BPW supports both retriggerable and non-retriggerable monostable modes. Retriggerability is enabled by connecting the timing capacitor's discharge path to VDD (via internal transistor), allowing new triggers to extend the current output pulse. This behavior is confirmed in the Harris Semiconductor datasheet SCHS065C and applies specifically to the CD4098BPW variant.
What is the recommended bypass capacitor for CD4098BPW?
A 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed between VDD (Pin 16) and GND (Pin 8), located within 2 mm of the CD4098BPW, is specified in TI's application guidance. This minimizes supply transients during output transitions and prevents false triggering. For systems with high di/dt noise, a parallel 10 µF tantalum capacitor is advised-but the 0.1 µF is mandatory for stable CD4098BPW operation.
Is CD4098BPW RoHS-compliant?
Yes-CD4098BPW carries NIPDAU lead finish and is RoHS-compliant per TI's Packaging Information Addendum dated 15-Jul-2026. Its "Yes" RoHS status is explicitly listed for orderable part numbers CD4098BPWR and CD4098BPWR.A, which share the same die and PW package construction as CD4098BPW. No exemption codes apply.
