Given that the charging current of capacitor is constant in a monostable multivibrator using IC 555, then find the type of output waveform, type of capacitor voltage waveform and the time period of output. Correct Answer The capacitor waveform is a ramp, the output waveform is a pulse, the time period is \(\frac{2.C.VCC}{3.I}\)

If a constant charging current is applied through the capacitor, the output is a pulse, while capacitor voltage is a ramp. Time period of ramp/pulse = TO = 2VCCxC/3I.
