CD74HCT4020MT

Counter Dividers Overview

The CD74HCT4020MT is a high-speed CMOS logic device functioning as a 14-stage binary counter. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2V to 6V and supports surface-mount installation in a 16-SOIC package. The component features asynchronous clear functionality and up-counting direction. It is designed for industrial temperature ranges, typically spanning from -55°C to 125°C.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Provides 14-bit asynchronous binary counting capability
• Features an active-low asynchronous clear input
• Supports wide supply voltage operation compatible with standard logic families

Counter Dividers Applications

• Digital frequency division circuits
• Time-base generation for digital clocks
• Event counting in measurement systems

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'MT' against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm package dimensions and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required temperature grade and logic family variant (HCT) for system compatibility.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component when a 14-bit counter is required in a surface-mount form factor. The HCT series ensures TTL-compatible input thresholds while maintaining CMOS output drive capabilities. Verify that the application does not require synchronous clocking or preset functions, which are absent in this specific model.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This device belongs to the Texas Instruments CD74HCT4020 series, which includes variants like CD74HC4020 and CD74HCT4020E. The 'M' indicates a plastic small-outline package, while 'T' denotes tape-and-reel packaging. It serves as a fundamental building block for sequential logic designs requiring extended bit depth.

Counter Dividers Replacement Considerations

CD74HC4020MT offers similar functionality with HC logic levels. SN74HC4020D is a pin-compatible alternative in SOIC-16. Verify voltage tolerance and speed characteristics before substitution.
