Frequently Asked Questions
How many counter output stages are accessible on the CD74HC4020M96E4?
The CD74HC4020M96E4 is a 14-stage binary counter but provides external outputs from 12 stages (Q1, Q4 through Q14), as Q2 and Q3 are internal. This allows frequency division ratios of 2x through 16384x from the clock input.
What is the operating supply voltage range of the CD74HC4020M96E4?
The CD74HC4020M96E4 operates from 2 V to 6 V supply, making it compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V systems, as well as 2.7 V battery-powered devices in the HC logic family with guaranteed performance across the full voltage range.
How does the reset function work on the CD74HC4020M96E4?
The device features an asynchronous master reset (MR) input that clears all counter stages immediately when asserted high, independent of the clock signal. This allows instant counter initialization during power-up or system reset sequences.
What package and ordering option does the CD74HC4020M96E4 use?
The CD74HC4020M96E4 is packaged in a 16-pin SOIC (M96 suffix, 96-unit tape-and-reel) with the E4 green suffix indicating RoHS-compliant, lead-free construction for environmentally regulated production lines.
