IC provides versatile toggle functions.

The circuit in Figure 1 offers not only as many as six channels in a single IC package, but also a high level of additional flexibility. The configuration of Output 1 is a 'plain-vanilla' toggle. A resistive divider comprising R1 and R2 provides a midsupply bias to all the channels through resistors R3 , R6 , R7 , R10 , and R12 . Because the bias voltage of R1 /R2 is within the hysteresis range of the gates, they behave as flip-flops, retaining their high or low state in a stable manner.

Debouncing capacitors C2 , C3 , C4 , and C5 charge to the level of the output. Pushing switch S1 ...
