Nexperia 74HC4060D 14-Stage Binary Ripple Counter with Oscillator SOIC-16

The Nexperia 74HC4060D is a 14-stage binary ripple counter with oscillator, supplied in a SOIC-16 package for timing and frequency division applications.

Overview

This CMOS integrated circuit combines a versatile oscillator with a multi-stage divider, making it suitable for generating precise timing signals and frequency division in a wide range of electronic designs. The counter advances on the high-to-low transition of the clock signal.

Oscillator Configuration

The on-chip oscillator can be configured for use with either an external RC network or a crystal. Three dedicated terminals (RS, RTC and CTC) are provided for setup. Alternatively, an external clock signal can be applied directly to the RS input, bypassing the internal oscillator entirely when an external timing source is preferred.

Outputs and Reset

The device offers ten buffered parallel outputs (Q3 to Q9 and Q11 to Q13), providing access to various divided-down frequencies from the main clock. An asynchronous master reset (MR) input clears all counter stages immediately, forcing all outputs low regardless of the current clock state.

Input Protection and Operation

Input clamp diodes allow current-limiting resistors to be used when interfacing inputs with voltage signals that exceed the VCC supply voltage, supporting use in mixed-voltage environments. The device operates from a supply voltage range of 2 V to 6 V and is compliant with JEDEC standard no. 7A for CMOS input levels.
