Sincronized timer with input using 555 in LTSpice.

Hi, I'm trying to get a clock signal of 200Hz which is synchronized with an input.

My approach is that by using a differenciator I can get the falling edge peaks, and trigger a 555 in monostable mode. The problem is that the trigger signal I have is 0V DC so the monostable won't trigger. What I need is that the clock oscillates and when it detects a peak syncronize to it.

This is what I have:

This is the input signal:

And this is the rectified differenciated signal which I want to use to synchronize the timer:

Hi axri,
I can now run that asc file you posted, had to rename the *.txt file to signal2.txt

This is not the same asc file that you show in your first post??

BTW: Is this Homework, I see that you are a student?

It is a project I am working for.

I have trouble simulating it as it gets stuck and doesn't run correctly.

Great, thanks.

By adjusting the timer RC values I got to this point:

I have 2.5ms signals at the falling edges, so it is now synchronized, but I need to output the full clock signal.

Hi,
OK, modify your circuit to give the full signal and post the asc file, I will check it out.
BTW: your circuit layout in LTS is very poor, try my layout.

The input signal is just that file.
What I need is to complete the output signal with the full clock like the red signal I draw:

Sorry for the confusion, the circuit works great, just what I wanted.
This will be used in a receptor to recover the clock from a different code.
Thank you very much!
