Greetings,
 
I am in need of a simple circuit to stretch a pulse produced by a micro-tremor
vibration detector.  I would like the circuit to run on 12v, which precludes
(without adding a 5 v regulator) the use of a 74123 retriggerable monostable
multivibrator.  Is there another device, relatively commonly available, that
that runs on 12v that acts like a 74123 (CMOS maybe?).  Thanks!
                                                           - Frank
(The micro-tremor vibration detector consists of a gold plated ball resting
on two gold plated parallel wires in a hermetically sealed unit.  Vibration
causes the gold ball to momentarly break the circuit, generating the pulse.
The circuit can be wired to generate positive or negative going pulses).
