Bistable Multivibrators

The circuit utilizes a CMOS dual D flip-flop (CD4013) to toggle a relay or other load using a momentary push button. Multiple push buttons can be connected in parallel to control the relay from different locations. A high signal from the push button is coupled to the set line through a small capacitor (0.1 µF). The high level from the Q output is inverted by the upper transistor, providing a low reset signal to the reset line for approximately 400 ms, after which the reset line returns to a high state, resetting the flip-flop.

The circuit employs a CMOS dual D flip-flop (CD4013) to toggle a relay or similar load via a momentary push button. This configuration allows for multiple push buttons to be connected in parallel, enabling control of the relay from various locations. When the push button is activated, a high signal is transmitted to the set line through a coupling capacitor of 0.1 µF. The output from the Q terminal is then inverted by an upper transistor, generating a low reset signal that is applied to the reset line for a duration of approximately 400 milliseconds. After this interval, the reset line reverts to a high state, thereby resetting the flip-flop.

In this circuit, the CD4013 flip-flop acts as a bistable element, maintaining its state until triggered by the push button. The momentary high signal initiates a state change, allowing for the toggling of the relay. The use of a capacitor in conjunction with the push button ensures that the signal is appropriately managed, preventing noise and ensuring reliable operation.

The reset mechanism provided by the upper transistor ensures that the flip-flop returns to its original state after a specified time, which can be useful in applications where a temporary activation of the relay is required. The design can be adapted for various applications, including remote control systems, alarm systems, and other scenarios where momentary actuation is beneficial.

The flexibility of wiring multiple push buttons in parallel enhances the usability of this circuit, allowing for control from different locations without the need for complex wiring or additional components. Overall, this circuit exemplifies a straightforward yet effective implementation of a toggle mechanism using a dual D flip-flop and demonstrates the versatility of CMOS technology in digital circuit design.The circuit below uses a CMOS dual D flip flop (CD4013) to toggle a relay or other load with a momentary push button. Several push buttons can be wired in parallel to control the relay from multiple locations. A high level from the push button is coupled to the set line through a small (0. 1uF) capacitor. The high level from the Q output is inverted by the upper transistor and supplies a low reset level to the reset line for about 400 mS, after which time the reset line returns to a high state and resets the flip flop. CMOS Toggle Flip Flop Using Push Button - The circuit below uses a CMOS dual D flip flop (CD4013) to toggle a relay or other load with a momentary push button.

DAC & flip flops form constant current source - 04/23/09 EDN- Design Ideas, Using two flip flops, you can program a serial-input DAC to produce a constant 4 mA. Descrete Set/Reset Flip Flop - Here are two examples of bistable flip flops which can be toggled between states with a single push button.

When the button is pressed, the capacitor connected to the base of the conducting transistor will charge to a slightly higher voltage. When the button is released, the same capacitor will discharge back to the previous voltage causing the transistor to turn off.

The rising voltage at the collector of the transistor that is turning off causes the opposite transistor to turn on and the circuit remains in a stable state until. D-Flip/Flop One Shot Circuit - Yes you can use cheap D flip/flop logic circuits as nice one-shot pulse generators.

This schematic shows how the popular CD4013 and the CD74HC74 can be used to generate pulses ranging from nanoseconds to seconds. Discrete Set/Reset Flip Flop - This is an example of a set/reset flip flop using discrete components.

When power is applied, only one of the transistors will conduct causing the other to remain off. The conducting transistor can be turned off by grounding it`s base through the push button which causes the collector voltage to rise and turn on the opposite transistor. Flashing LED Advertising Badge #1 - I have seen numerous flashing light badges at trade shows and conventions.
