Product details
Overview
ICM7555ID/01,118 from NXP Semiconductors is a CMOS timer IC engineered as a direct functional replacement for NE/SE555 in most applications, delivering precision timing via monostable or astable operation. It operates across 3 V to 16 V, draws only 80 µA typical supply current, features 20 pA typical trigger/threshold/reset input currents, and supports up to 500 kHz oscillator frequency - enabling accurate time delays from microseconds to hours in automotive-grade environments (−40 °C to +85 °C).
For engineers reviewing the ICM7555ID/01,118 datasheet, ICM7555ID/01,118 pinout, ICM7555ID/01,118 application, or ICM7555ID/01,118 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, SO8 package mapping, confirmed automotive temperature rating, real-world timing accuracy data (±1.0% frequency stability), and validated alternatives for legacy 555-based designs requiring low-power, rail-to-rail output, and high-impedance timing networks.
Technical Context
The ICM7555ID/01,118 implements dual high-impedance CMOS comparators driving an SR flip-flop and CMOS output inverter, eliminating crowbar current during transitions. Its internal voltage thresholds are fixed at 1/3 VDD (TRIGGER) and 2/3 VDD (THRESHOLD), with CONTROL_VOLTAGE pin allowing external modulation of trip points.
Unlike bipolar 555 timers, it requires no CONTROL_VOLTAGE decoupling capacitor and supports timing networks with resistances up to 100 kΩ and capacitances down to 0.1 µF - enabling stable operation with high-impedance RC networks while maintaining ±50 ppm/°C temperature drift at 5 V supply.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 3 V to 16 V - supports single-supply operation across industrial and automotive rails without level-shifting. |
| Supply Current (Typ.) | 80 µA - enables battery-powered timing circuits with multi-year runtime on coin cells. |
| Input Current (Typ.) | 20 pA at TRIGGER/THRESHOLD/RESET - permits use of >10 MΩ timing resistors without leakage-induced timing error. |
| Oscillator Frequency | Up to 500 kHz - sufficient for PWM generation, clock synthesis, and pulse-width modulation in embedded control. |
| Frequency Stability | ±1.0% - ensures consistent timing accuracy across voltage and load variations in production systems. |
| Temperature Range | −40 °C to +85 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial PLC, and outdoor equipment deployment. |
| Output Drive | Rail-to-rail CMOS - drives TTL loads directly and swings fully to VDD/GND for clean logic interfacing. |
Pinout & Package
ICM7555ID/01,118 is supplied in an SO8 (SOT96-1) plastic small outline package, 8-lead, 3.9 mm body width, with gull-wing leads compatible with standard reflow soldering profiles.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pin 1) | Supply ground reference | Return path for all internal circuitry; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| TRIGGER (Pin 2) | Monostable start input | Active-LOW signal initiating timing cycle; threshold at ~0.31×VDD enables noise-immune edge detection. |
| OUTPUT (Pin 3) | Logic-level output driver | CMOS inverter output sourcing/sinking ≥3.2 mA; rail-to-rail swing eliminates need for external level shifters. |
| RESET (Pin 4) | Timer inhibit input | Active-LOW hard reset overriding all other inputs; high-impedance (>1012 Ω) prevents loading of control logic. |
| CONTROL_VOLTAGE (Pin 5) | Threshold voltage adjust | Direct access to comparator reference node; allows external voltage modulation of timing thresholds for FM or variable-delay applications. |
| THRESHOLD (Pin 6) | Capacitor upper-voltage sense | Detects when timing capacitor reaches ~0.65×VDD to terminate charge phase in astable mode. |
| DISCHARGE (Pin 7) | Timing capacitor discharge path | Open-drain NMOS switch sinking up to 10 mA; used to discharge external capacitor during timing cycle. |
| VDD (Pin 8) | Positive supply input | Accepts 3–16 V DC; no external decoupling required due to absence of supply-current transients during output switching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| NE/SE555 drop-in replacement | Maintains identical pinout and functional behavior while eliminating mandatory CONTROL_VOLTAGE decoupling and power-supply bypass capacitors. |
| Ultra-low input bias current | 20 pA typical enables timing with >100 MΩ resistors - extending delay range beyond 1 hour without capacitor leakage dominance. |
| No crowbar current | Eliminates 300–400 mA supply spikes during output transitions, removing need for local 100 nF ceramic decoupling at VDD pin. |
| Wide supply voltage range | 3 V to 16 V operation supports direct interface with Li-ion, 5 V logic, and 12 V automotive systems without regulators or LDOs. |
| Rail-to-rail output | Swings within 0.1 V of VDD and GND at 3.2 mA sink/source - ensures full logic-level compatibility with CMOS and TTL families. |
Applications
| Precision Timing Circuits | Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Generating stable, repeatable time delays in sensor wake-up controllers and watchdog timeout circuits. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monostable one-shot providing programmable delay between trigger event and system response.

Use Value: Low supply current (80 µA) and wide voltage range allow integration into always-on power management subsystems without burdening main supply. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar CMOS timer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC555CDR | TI CMOS 555 with 100 µA typical supply current; 10 pA input current; 2 MHz max frequency; SO8 package. | Higher max frequency supports faster PWM and clock generation but lacks automotive temperature rating (0 °C to 70 °C only). | Select TLC555CDR when >500 kHz operation or tighter input current spec (<10 pA) is required and ambient temperature stays within commercial range. |
| LMC555IMX/NOPB | TI LMC555 with 100 µA typical supply current; 0.2 pA input current; 1 MHz max frequency; SO8 package; −40 °C to +105 °C rating. | Lower input current enables ultra-high-Z timing networks (>1 GΩ); wider temp range suits extended industrial use but has higher quiescent current. | Select LMC555IMX/NOPB for extreme-impedance timing or extended temperature operation where sub-100 pA leakage is critical. |
Compared with TLC555CDR and LMC555IMX/NOPB, the ICM7555ID/01,118 offers optimal balance of automotive temperature compliance, ultra-low 80 µA supply current, and proven 555-pin-compatible design - making it the preferred choice for cost-sensitive, long-life automotive and industrial timing where 500 kHz bandwidth suffices.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the ICM7555ID/01,118?
The ICM7555ID/01,118 is rated for operation from −40 °C to +85 °C, meeting automotive-grade environmental requirements. This specification is confirmed in the NXP datasheet ordering information table for the ICM7555ID variant and applies identically to the ICM7555ID/01,118 orderable part number.
Does the ICM7555ID/01,118 require a decoupling capacitor on the CONTROL_VOLTAGE pin?
No, the ICM7555ID/01,118 does not require a decoupling capacitor on the CONTROL_VOLTAGE pin due to its CMOS input structure and extremely high input impedance (≥1012 Ω). This is a key differentiator from the NE/SE555 and is explicitly stated in the NXP datasheet Section 11.1 and Feature list.
What package type is used for the ICM7555ID/01,118?
The ICM7555ID/01,118 uses the SO8 (SOT96-1) plastic small outline package with 8 gull-wing leads and 3.9 mm body width. This is confirmed in the NXP datasheet Table 1 "Ordering information" for the ICM7555ID type number and matches the pin configuration shown in Figure 2.
Can the ICM7555ID/01,118 directly replace a NE555 in an existing PCB layout?
Yes, the ICM7555ID/01,118 is pin-compatible with the NE555 and functions as a direct replacement in most circuits. However, external 0.01 µF CONTROL_VOLTAGE and 100 nF VDD decoupling capacitors can typically be omitted due to the ICM7555ID/01,118's CMOS architecture and absence of crowbar current.
What is the maximum guaranteed oscillator frequency for the ICM7555ID/01,118?
The ICM7555ID/01,118 guarantees a maximum oscillator frequency of 500 kHz in astable mode, as specified in Table 5 "Characteristics" of the NXP datasheet under parameter fosc. This value is tested and guaranteed across the full operating temperature and voltage range.
