Monostable Multivibrators

A monostable multivibrator, also known as a one-shot pulse generator, is a type of electronic circuit that produces a single output pulse of a specific duration in response to a trigger input. It has two stable states: one in which the output is low and another in which the output is high. When the circuit receives a trigger signal, it temporarily switches to its unstable state, causing the output to go high for a set period of time before returning to its stable state. Monostable multivibrators are often used in applications where a brief pulse is needed to initiate some action or process, such as starting a timer or sending a signal to another circuit. They can be implemented using various types of logic ICs, including flip-flops and gates.
