// find minimum trigger voltage,maximum capacitor voltage ,width of output pulse // Electronic Principles // By Albert Malvino , David Bates // Seventh Edition // The McGraw-Hill Companies // Example 23-6, page 918 clear;clc; close; // Given data C=0.47*10^-6;// capacitance in faraday R=33*10^3;// resistance in ohms Vcc=12;// in volts // Calculations UTP=2*Vcc/3;// upper trip point in volts LTP=Vcc/3;// lower trip point in volts W=1.1*R*C;// pulse width disp("Volts",UTP,"Maximum trigger voltage=") disp("Volts",LTP,"Minimum trigger voltage=") disp("seconds",W,"pulse width=") // Result // Minimum trigger voltage is 4 Volts // Maximum capacitor voltage is 8 Volts // Pulse width is 17.1 mSeconds
