Abstract

A monostable multivibrator includes a pair of MOSFETS (34, 42) electrically coupled to an input node (12) and a MOS logic gate which has one input coupled to this node and another input adapted to receive a delayed signal from another node (38). The MOSFETS are configured to hold node 38 at ground and keep the input MOSFET of the logic gate electrically isolated from the means used to generate the delayed signal thereby enabling the output MOSFET of the logic gate to charge its output efficiently with respect to time.
