Astable operation

When the circuit is connected as shown in Figure 15 (pins 2 and 6 connected) it triggers

ratio of these two resistors.

As in the triggered mode, the charge and discharge times and, therefore, frequency are

independent of the supply voltage.

CAPACITOR VOLTAGE = 2.0V/div

t = 0.1 ms / div

INPUT = 2.0V/div

OUTPUT VOLTAGE = 5.0V/div
