The HEF4518BT,652 is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the CMOS logic family. This IC is a dual 4-bit decade synchronous counter that has a wide range of applications.
Key Features of the HEF4518BT,652:
1. Dual 4-bit Counter: The HEF4518BT,652 consists of two 4-bit decade counters independently housed within a single IC package. Each counter is capable of counting from 0 to 9 before resetting to 0.
2. Synchronous Operation: The counter operates synchronously, meaning that the counting action is synchronized with an external clock signal. This allows precise and accurate counting operations.
3. Synchronous Reset: The HEF4518BT,652 provides a synchronous reset input, which allows the user to reset the counter to the initial state (0) at any desired time. The reset action is synchronized with the clock signal.
4. Carry Output: Each 4-bit counter within the IC provides a carry output (CO), which can be utilized to cascade multiple counters together to achieve larger counting ranges.
5. Ripple Blanking: The IC offers ripple blanking capability, which allows the device to ignore invalid counting states during the rippling effect caused by counting events. This ensures reliable and glitch-free counting performance
