CD4020BEE4

Counter Dividers Overview

The CD4020BEE4 is a CMOS 14-stage ripple-carry binary counter and divider manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within a supply voltage range of 3 V to 18 V and supports an operating temperature from -55°C to +125°C. The device is housed in a 16-lead Plastic Dual In-Line (PDIP) package with NIPDAU lead finish. It features asynchronous reset functionality and provides outputs from all 14 stages.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Provides 14-stage binary counting capability with dedicated outputs for each stage
• Supports wide supply voltage operation ranging from 3 V to 18 V
• Includes asynchronous reset input for immediate clearing of the count register
• Designed for extended industrial temperature environments

Counter Dividers Applications

• Frequency division circuits
• Digital timing sequences
• Event counting systems

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific E4 suffix indicates compliance with RoHS standards and confirms the use of NIPDAU lead finish. Ensure the PDIP-16 carrier type matches the assembly requirements, as this part is supplied in tubes containing 25 units. Confirm the active production status aligns with long-term availability needs.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-stage binary counter is required without external decoding logic. The 14-stage architecture allows direct access to intermediate bit positions. Verify that the asynchronous reset behavior meets the system's initialization requirements compared to synchronous alternatives.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This device belongs to the CD4000B series of CMOS logic components. It shares pinout compatibility with other 16-pin counters like the CD4040B but offers a different stage count. The E4 suffix denotes a specific packaging and environmental configuration within the broader CD4020B product family.

Counter Dividers Replacement Considerations

CD4020BE serves as a standard plastic DIP alternative. CD4020BF is available for hermetic ceramic applications. Cross-reference datasheets to confirm identical electrical characteristics before substitution.
