5962-8950302CA

The Texas Instruments 5962-8950302CA is a Low-Power Dual LinCMOS Timer designed for versatile timing applications. It operates across a wide supply voltage range of 2V to 15V, making it suitable for various power-sensitive designs. The device exhibits very low power consumption, typically 2mW at 5V.

This dual timer features CMOS outputs capable of rail-to-rail swing and high output current capability, sinking up to 100mA and sourcing 10mA. It is functionally interchangeable with the NE556 and operates at frequencies up to 2MHz. Its high input impedance allows for smaller timing capacitors compared to the NE556, enabling more accurate time delays and oscillations.

The 5962-8950302CA is housed in a 14-pin CDIP (J) package and operates within an industrial temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The device is compatible with CMOS, TTL, and MOS logic, offering flexibility in system integration. Tie unused inputs to an appropriate logic level to prevent false triggering.

This timer is ideal for applications requiring precise timing control with minimal power draw. Its robust output drive and wide operating voltage make it a reliable choice for industrial and military applications.
