Monostable Multivibrator for Pulse Conversion

Monostable multivibrator is a type of electronic circuit that has one stable state and another unstable state. In the unstable state, the circuit produces a pulse of fixed duration, after which it returns to its stable state. This property of the monostable multivibrator makes it useful in pulse conversion.

Working Principle

When a trigger pulse is applied to the input of the monostable multivibrator, it switches to its unstable state, producing an output pulse of fixed duration. The duration of the output pulse is determined by the time constant of the circuit, which is controlled by the values of the resistor and capacitor used in the circuit. Once the output pulse is generated, the circuit automatically returns to its stable state.

Conversion of 1 ms Pulse to 10 ms Pulse

To convert a 1 ms pulse to a 10 ms pulse, a monostable multivibrator can be used. The 1 ms pulse can be applied as the trigger input to the monostable multivibrator. The output of the monostable multivibrator will be a pulse of fixed duration, which can be set to 10 ms by appropriately choosing the values of the resistor and capacitor used in the circuit.

Other Options

The other options, astable multivibrator, bistable multivibrator, and J-K flip-flop, are not suitable for pulse conversion in this scenario. An astable multivibrator generates a continuous train of pulses, and cannot be used to convert a single pulse of fixed duration. A bistable multivibrator has two stable states, and requires a change in input to switch between the states. A J-K flip-flop is a type of bistable multivibrator, and also requires a change in input to switch between its states. Therefore, these options are not suitable for pulse conversion.
