Hi all, OK a silly basic question.
I'm doing some digital stuff.
I wanted a one shot to reset some things, but didn't want to put in an entire chip
(74HC123.. or whatever the number is.)
So I just used a cap, resistor, diode and inverter.

Is this OK?

Oh just an RC high pass and diode to ground to "eat up" the reverse voltage spike.

Like power up, up then off then up again, or very slow up. those kinds of
things.
Hmm that shouldn't be a problem. It only "sees" internal sharp pulses.
I was more worried about too much current in the diode,
or if the -0.3 volt from the diode clamp would be an issue.
It seems like this must be (or must have been*) either a standard trick..
or something that is frowned upon.

If the inverter weren't CMOS, and you can tolerate multiple
edges near the end of the delay, yes.

For CMOS, slow-slewing inputs are highly discouraged (can
cause high power consumption) unless the gate is one that
has hysteresis (i.e. a Schmitt inverter).

At/near the logic threshold, a slow ramp voltage might result in power
supply noise getting amplified (and that means lots of
hash on the output), so hysteresis is your friend. Two
thresholds, so you're never near both of 'em.

Naw, today the 'component' is an iPod, or such. people are writing apps as

Either a '555 or a SN74LVC1G123 (both in SO-8 nowadays) would
work. In CMOS, a slow-slewing input that approaches threshold
will result in lots of hash (because power supply noise gets
amplified), and possibly in high power consumption, UNLESS you
have a Schmitt gate. The hysteresis of a Schmitt trigger solves
both problems. Switching to TTL solves the transient power consumption
issue.

If you need a clean reset puls like a 74HC121 or similar circuit will provide, this is *not* OK. You will need some more components like in the schematic below.

|| D2 |\
----||----+--->|---+---+----| >O------
|| | | | |/
C1 | .-. | HCT14
- | | ---
^ D1 R| | --- C2
| '-' |
| | |
---------+--------+---+---------------
created by Andy´s ASCII-Circuit v1.24.140803 Beta www.tech-chat.de

There are some thing you have to mention:
- The starting pulse need to be able to provide the required power i.e. provide enough current during it’s on-time to load C2.
- So C1>>C2
- D1 eats the negative pulse on the falling edge of the input pulse.
- D2 isolates the one shot from the input once it has started.
- R*C2 determines the resulting pulsewidth (along with the thresholds of the 74HC14).
- To trigger this one shot again, it requires a new rising edge i.e. a new pulse on its input.
- C1 and D1 can be omitted if you can couple the input pulse directly. But in this case the timing will start when the input pulse has gone.

This is a prop-delay one-shot:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/53724080/Circuits/Oscillators/Prop_Delay_One-shot.JPG

That one makes a pulse that is one gate delay wide, but you can add
any delay element in series with the lower inverter: coax, RC, more
gates, or just a cap from the inverter output to ground, if you're
feeling tacky.

It's all "logic legal" electrically.

Use an XOR gate, and it fires on both input edges.

Hi guys, Well a follow-up on the oneshot.
So this is with a 74HC14. (Schmitt trigger inverter.)
Here's a link to a dropbox file. (I'm really loving dropbox.)
(It's turning into a notebook supplement.)
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/kj73ftaajd3532w/-Vtjx2t9tX
The sheets of paper describe the circuit and the 'scope shots.
The first three scope shots are w/o the series resistor.
(Lots of loading as Phil warned.)
I then added the 1k in series, and measured pulse width versus the capacitor.
At the lowest C (12 pF... I couldn't find 10 pF in my box.), the 'scope probe loaded the input.
So TEK008 is just the output. And then TEK009 is 'scope probe with 3.3pF series capacitor.
The picture is of probing w/3.3pF series cap.. circuit in upper right hand side.
(the rest is some other bit's and pieces.)

components like in the schematic below.
snipping nice Ascii art circuit.

There are some thing you have to
mention:

- The starting pulse need to be able to provide
the required power i.e. provide enough current during it's on-time to load
C2.

- So C1>>C2

- D1 eats the negative pulse on the falling edge
of the input pulse.

- D2 isolates the one shot from the input once it
has started.

- R*C2 determines the resulting pulsewidth (along
with the thresholds of the 74HC14).

- To trigger this one shot again, it requires a
new rising edge i.e. a new pulse on its input.
OK that seems to work too.
you might want to add some series resistance so as to not load the input as much when D1 conducts.
- C1 and D1 can be omitted if you can couple the
input pulse directly. But in this case the timing will start when the input
pulse has gone.

Hmm..If you take out C1 and D1 then it like a pulse stretcher.
(I've done that sometime in the dim past.)
I guess that's also part of mickey mouse logic.

Once I've put in enough other stuff I might as well just stick in a "real" one-shot. I had a few extra inverters, so the above was what I thought of.

A week or so ago, JT claimed that he installed a script to killfile me and all
followups. Of course, he's claimed that many times before, and lied every time.
He claims he kills me, and then lurks. I bet he peeks in his neighbors windows,
too... that's his personality.

BTW, discounting metastability, your one-shot only works if the

Metastability? What can go metastable?

As far as width goes, it's similar to George's RC glitcher. Better, actually, in
not having long time constants that will introduce pattern dependencies.

The RC glitcher can have problems if C is small, and undershoots zero
