Here is an **idea** that manipulates the trigger threshold point, by the D-type flip-flop, to terminate the timing cycle early. D3 is used as a low-voltage, low-leakage zener diode. Circuit simulated in Proteus. [![circuit][1]][1] Normal triggered output duration. [![normal][2]][2] Triggered output terminated by next trigger pulse. [![normal_off][3]][3] Output can be turned on or off with alternating trigger inputs.
