Note 1:
All voltages are measured with respect to the ground pin, unless otherwise specified.
Note 2:
Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is func-
tional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. Electrical Characteristics state DC andAC electrical specifications under particular test conditions which guar-
antee specific performance limits. This assumes that the device is within the Operating Ratings. Specifications are not guaranteed for parameters where no limit is
given, however, the typical value is a good indication of device performance.
Note 3:
Refer to RETSC555X drawing for specifications of military LMC555H version.
Note 4:
For operation at elevated temperatures, the device must be derated based on a 150C maximum junction temperature and a thermal resistance of 111C/W
for the LMC555CN, 167C/W for the LMC555CH, 169C/W for the LMC555CM, and 225C/W for the LMC555MM. Maximum allowable dissipation at 25C is 1126
mW for the LMC555CN, 755 mW for the LMC555CH, 740 mW for the LMC555CM and 555 mW for the LMC555MM.
Note 5:
If the RESET pin is to be used at temperatures of 20C and below V
S
is required to be 2.0V or greater.

C (Gives time that output is high following trigger)
RESET overrides TRIGGER, which can override THRESHOLD. Therefore, the trigger pulse must be shorter than the desired t
H
.
The minimum trigger pulse width is 20 ns.
The minimum reset pulse width is 400 ns.
