Asserting the input signal IN of this device immediately activates the Q output. At this point, releasing the input IN will start the time elapsing. When the programmed time, applied to the input PT, is elapsed and the input IN is still de-asserted, the Q output become FALSE. This condition will be keeped until the input IN is remains de-asserted.

If the IN input is asserted again before time elapsing, the time counting will be cleared and the Q output remains ON.

The ET output pin reports the current elapsed time.
