How to trigger 74LS123?

Hi friends:

I got a serious problem with 74LS123.

74LS123 has been configured as following:

1CLR-----VCC
1A-------GND
1CEXT----100PF( one pin is conected to GND )
1REXT----120K
1B-------INPUT
1Q-------OUPUT

Input keeps changing from 1V to 3.5V repeatedly.

Why this chip can not be triggered?

Beg for you help....

  • Your circuit description does not line up with the data sheet I have for the 74ls123 -

    The capacitor is connected between pins 14 and 15, the resistor between pin 16 and VCC (pin 16). Try this configuration and it might have a better chance of working.

    How do you mean the input is changing from 1v to 3.5v??

    Why are you using a 74ls123 to generate a 100mS pulse? If you're using a micro, it is normally more than capable for generating pulses.


    Methinks a good read of the datasheet is in order.

    How does this hardware question relate to Keil's C compiler??? I suggest using a different forum.
