CD74HC4060PWT

Counter Dividers Overview

The CD74HC4060PWT is a high-speed CMOS binary counter and oscillator integrated circuit manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features a 14-stage asynchronous ripple counter with an internal clock oscillator, packaged in a 16-pin TSSOP surface-mount case. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 6 V and supports counting up sequences triggered on the negative edge. It includes outputs from ten stages and provides an asynchronous reset function for system control.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Integrates a 14-stage asynchronous binary counter with an internal RC oscillator circuit
• Provides direct access to outputs from ten distinct counter stages
• Features an asynchronous reset input for immediate clearing of the count register

Counter Dividers Applications

• Timing and frequency division circuits utilizing the built-in oscillator
• Digital event counting applications requiring asynchronous stage monitoring
• System reset sequencing logic in embedded microcontroller designs

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'PWT' against official Texas Instruments documentation to confirm the exact tape-and-reel packaging configuration and temperature grade. Ensure compatibility with standard TSSOP-16 footprints during PCB layout. Cross-reference ordering information directly with manufacturer datasheets to avoid discrepancies between distributor listings and official part specifications.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact solution combining a binary counter and oscillator is required in a small form factor. The HC series offers wide voltage flexibility suitable for various digital logic families. Consider the asynchronous nature of the counter stages when designing timing-critical paths that require precise synchronization across multiple bits.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This part belongs to the Texas Instruments 74HC family of high-speed CMOS logic devices. It shares functional similarities with other 14-stage counters but distinguishes itself through the integration of an onboard oscillator, reducing external component requirements. The TSSOP package facilitates automated assembly in space-constrained electronic designs.
