74LS221 Dual Mono. Multivibrator Schmitt Trigger-IC-Datasheet

74LS221 overview

The 74LS series of integrated circuits (ICs) was one of the most popular logic families of transistor-transistor logic (TTL) logic chips. 74LS series is a bipolar, low-power Schottky IC. The 74LS221 device is a dual multivibrator with performance characteristics virtually identical to those of the ’121 devices. Each multivibrator features a negative-transition-triggered input and a positive-transition-triggered input, either of which can be used as an inhibit input.
