POWER
Supply voltage
2TRIGGER
GPIO
Responsible for transition of the flip-flop from set to reset, external trigger pulse applied here
3OUTPUT
GPIO
Output driven waveform
4RESET
GPIO
Negative pulse applied to disable or reset the timer, connect to VCC for normal operation
5CONTROL
GPIO
Controls threshold and trigger levels, external voltage can modulate output waveform
6THRESHOLD
GPIO
Compares applied voltage with 2/3 of supply voltage to set flip-flop state
7DISCHARGE
GPIO
Open collector output, toggles from high to low when voltage reaches 2/3 of the supply voltage
8GND
GND
Ground reference voltage
