Pin Descriptions
VDD (pin 1)
8/14 hrs (pin 6)
This pin is the positive supply pin, and should
always be the most positive point in the circuit.
Internal circuitry connected to this pin is used to
provide power on reset of the microprocessor, so
an external reset signal is normally not required.
Refer to the Electrical Characteristics section for
further information.
This input pin selects either an eight hour (if
high) or a 14 hour (if low) time interval when in
the quick programming mode. The state of this
pin is only determined at the end of eight hours.
start (pin 7)
A single momentary low on this pin is used to
initiate a quick programming cycle of either 8 or
14 hours. Pressing this switch multiple times will
program the timer for operation with the number
of hours equal to the number of button presses.
When there is more than two seconds with no
switch activity, the circuit will assume that
programming is complete, and issue a short
(0.5sec) ‘output off’ to signal the user.
Out (pin 2), and Out (pin 3)
These are the two complementary timer outputs.
During a timing interval, pin 2 will go to a high
logic level, and pin 3 will go low.
reset (pin 4)
This is an active low master reset input. If unused,
it can be left open circuited (due to the internal
resistor), or tied to VDD.
This input also provides an abort function which
cancels any timing cycle that is in progress, if the
input is held continuously low for more than
three seconds. An internal debouncing circuit
and a pullup resistor are provided on this pin to
assist with the interface to mechanical switches.
Clock (pin 5)
This is the master timekeeping input. Normally a
60Hz full-wave, positive going signal is applied to
this Schmitt trigger input. Due to the internal
clamp diodes, often the only other component
required is a series connected resistor. Some
circuit configurations may require a pulldown
resistor to prevent the possibility of having a
floating input.
VSS (pin 8)
Circuit common is connected to this pin. This is
the most negative point in the circuit.
Ordering Information
