MC14018BFR1

Counter Dividers Overview

The MC14018BFR1 is a synchronous positive-edge-triggered 4-bit up decade counter belonging to the Motorola B-Suffix CMOS logic series. It features a dedicated clock input and an asynchronous reset function, enabling precise sequential counting operations in digital circuits. The device is housed in a surface-mount SOIC-16 package, designed for integration into compact electronic assemblies requiring reliable binary-coded decimal counting capabilities.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Synchronous positive-edge triggered operation ensures stable state transitions aligned with clock signals
• Asynchronous reset capability allows immediate clearing of count states independent of the clock cycle
• CMOS construction provides high noise immunity and low power dissipation characteristics

Counter Dividers Applications

• Digital frequency division circuits
• Sequential control logic systems
• Decimal counting modules in instrumentation

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix FR1 confirms the tape-and-reel packaging format required for automated assembly processes. Confirm RoHS compliance status as B-Suffix devices may vary by production batch. Ensure the supplier source aligns with authorized distribution channels to guarantee component authenticity and traceability for critical manufacturing runs.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component when a synchronous decade counter with asynchronous reset is required in a surface-mount design. The B-Suffix designation indicates compatibility with standard CD4000 series pinouts while offering improved performance metrics typical of Motorola's CMOS technology. Evaluate thermal management requirements based on the SOIC-16 package constraints.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This part belongs to the extensive Motorola B-Suffix CMOS logic family, which includes various gates, flip-flops, and counters. These components are engineered to replace legacy CD4000 series devices while providing enhanced electrical specifications. The MC14018BFR1 specifically addresses applications needing reliable 4-bit up-counting functionality within industrial or consumer electronic systems.
