CD74HC4046AM96E4

Overview

The CD74HC4046AM96E4 is a high-speed CMOS logic phase-locked loop (PLL) integrated circuit manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features a linear voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) and three distinct phase comparators within a single circuit configuration. The device operates on a supply voltage ranging from 2 V to 6 V, with a maximum operating frequency of 38 MHz. It supports an extended industrial temperature range from -55°C to +125°C. The component is housed in a 16-pin SOIC package with a width of 3.90 mm and complies with RoHS standards.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a linear voltage-controlled oscillator for precise frequency generation
• Includes three selectable phase comparators for flexible loop configurations
• Supports direct or capacitive coupling for signal input flexibility

Applications

• Frequency synthesis circuits
• Clock recovery systems
• FM demodulation applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix E4 confirms RoHS compliance when sourcing. Confirm the AM96 designation corresponds to the 16-SOIC package variant. Ensure the supplier provides official datasheets matching the Texas Instruments part number to avoid counterfeit components.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a complete PLL solution with multiple comparator options. Verify that the 38 MHz maximum frequency meets system requirements. Check that the 16-SOIC package dimensions fit the available PCB footprint constraints.
