CD4029BF3A

Counter Dividers Overview

The CD4029BF3A is a CMOS presettable up/down counter manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features a 16-lead hermetic dual-in-line ceramic package (CDIP) with the F3A suffix. The device operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C and is designated as an active production part. It supports both binary and decade counting modes, allowing for flexible digital logic applications in harsh environments.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Supports presettable up or down counting operations
• Configurable between binary and decade counting modes
• Hermetically sealed ceramic packaging for environmental protection

Counter Dividers Applications

• Military and defense electronic systems
• Harsh environment industrial control circuits
• High-reliability aerospace computing modules

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order includes the 'F3A' suffix to ensure receipt of the hermetic ceramic package variant. Confirm the operating temperature rating matches the required -55°C to +125°C specification for your application environment. Ensure procurement channels are authorized to handle military-grade components subject to strict quality controls.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component when hermetic sealing is mandatory for radiation or moisture resistance. The F3A suffix specifically denotes the ceramic dual-in-line package. Consider alternative plastic packages only if environmental exposure is controlled and hermeticity is not required.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This component belongs to the CD4029B series of CMOS logic devices. The base model offers various package options including plastic DIP and surface-mount formats. The BF3A designation identifies the specific military-grade, hermetically sealed ceramic version intended for high-reliability deployment.

Counter Dividers Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other CD4029B variants with different package suffixes such as BE or BM, provided hermeticity is not required. For military specifications, verify compatibility with CD4029B-MIL equivalents.
