CD4541BM96E4

Overview

The CD4541BM96E4 is a CMOS programmable timer manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within a supply voltage range of 3 V to 18 V and supports an operating temperature range from -55 °C to +125 °C. The device features a single internal timer with a maximum propagation delay of 10,500 ns. It provides high-level and low-level output currents of 4 mA each, with a typical operating supply current of 300 µA. The component is housed in a surface-mount SOIC-14 package.

Feature Summary

• CMOS Programmable Timer with 65,536 count capability
• Wide supply voltage range: 3 V to 18 V
• Extended industrial temperature range: -55 °C to +125 °C
• SOIC-14 surface-mount package

Applications

• Timing circuits requiring programmable intervals
• Oscillator applications using external RC components
• Industrial control systems operating in extreme temperatures

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '96E4' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm pinout compatibility and RoHS status. Ensure the SOIC-14 package dimensions match the target PCB footprint. Confirm that the 3V to 18V supply requirements align with the system design constraints before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a single-channel programmable timer with wide voltage tolerance. The 4 mA output drive capability suits moderate load applications. Consider the 10,500 ns propagation delay when designing high-speed timing sequences. The extended temperature range makes it suitable for harsh environments where standard commercial grade parts may fail.

Part Context

This part belongs to the CD4541B series of CMOS programmable timers. The base model CD4541BM is widely documented as a high-voltage type timer. The '96E4' suffix typically indicates specific packaging, lead finish, or environmental compliance variations defined by Texas Instruments for the SOIC-14 package.

Replacement Considerations

The CD4541BMTE4 is listed as a substitute part number in distributor records. Verify electrical equivalence and pin compatibility before replacement.
