Key Features
- 14-bit binary ripple-up counter with 10 accessible output stages (Q3–Q12, Q13, Q14) for flexible frequency division
- Integrated oscillator circuit eliminates external clock IC, accepting resistor-capacitor networks directly at OSC IN/OUT pins
- Wide supply voltage range of 3 V to 18 V enables direct interfacing with both 5 V TTL and 3.3 V CMOS logic families
- 16-pin ceramic DIP (CDIP) hermetic package suits high-reliability and military-grade designs requiring extended temperature stability
- Counter reset input allows synchronous initialization, supporting programmable timing sequences and power-on reset functions
Applications
CD4060BF3A is widely used in clock generation and frequency division circuits where a single IC replaces discrete oscillator and counter stages, reducing PCB area and component count. Its built-in oscillator supports crystal, RC, or external clock inputs, making it suitable for real-time clock references, watchdog timers, and power-management wake-up circuits in industrial and telecom equipment. The hermetic ceramic package makes it particularly suited to aerospace, defense, and high-reliability applications requiring extended operating temperature ranges beyond commercial-grade components.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum supply voltage for CD4060BF3A and how does it affect output drive current?
CD4060BF3A operates over a supply voltage range of 3 V to 18 V. At VDD = 5 V the typical output source/sink current is around 0.5 mA, while at 10 V it increases to approximately 1.3 mA, allowing it to drive heavier loads in higher-voltage industrial 12 V or 15 V systems without additional buffers.
Which oscillator configurations does CD4060BF3A support for generating an on-board clock signal?
The CD4060BF3A built-in oscillator supports RC networks, crystal resonators, and ceramic resonators connected between its OSC IN, OSC OUT, and RST pins. A typical 32.768 kHz crystal with two 22 pF load capacitors produces a stable timekeeping reference, while an RC network with a 100 kΩ resistor and 100 pF capacitor yields roughly 50 kHz, offering design flexibility for cost versus precision trade-offs.
How many frequency-division outputs are accessible on CD4060BF3A and what division ratios do they provide?
CD4060BF3A provides 10 output taps corresponding to binary division ratios of 2^3 (÷8) through 2^14 (÷16384). The available outputs are Q3, Q4, Q5, Q6, Q7, Q8, Q9, Q10, Q12, and Q14; Q11 and Q13 are internal only. This gives engineers a choice of 10 discrete power-of-two frequencies derived from a single oscillator, spanning roughly 3 decades of frequency reduction.
In what high-reliability scenarios is the ceramic DIP package of CD4060BF3A preferred over plastic packages?
The 16-pin ceramic hermetic DIP package of CD4060BF3A is preferred in military, aerospace, and industrial safety systems that must survive temperatures from -55 °C to +125 °C and high-humidity or corrosive environments. Ceramic hermetic sealing prevents moisture ingress that can degrade plastic-package ICs over decades of field operation, meeting MIL-STD-883 screening requirements common in avionics and satellite subsystems.
When would CD4060BF3A be a suitable lower-cost alternative to a dedicated microcontroller timer module?
CD4060BF3A is a cost-effective replacement for a microcontroller timer when the design only needs fixed power-of-two frequency division from a single oscillator source, with no need for reprogramming. A single CD4060BF3A plus a 32.768 kHz crystal delivers simultaneous 1 Hz, 2 Hz, 4 Hz, and 8 Hz outputs from one 16-pin DIP, at a fraction of the BOM cost and with standby currents below 1 µA at 5 V, outperforming many MCU sleep modes.
