The 74HCT4040D,652 is a high-speed CMOS integrated circuit (IC) component used primarily as a binary ripple counter. It is part of the 74HCT series, which utilizes the CMOS logic family and is known for its ability to operate at higher speeds with low power consumption.
Here are some key features and characteristics of the 74HCT4040D,652:
1. Counter Functionality: The IC serves as a 12-stage binary ripple counter, allowing it to count up to 4095 (2^12-1) different states. It is designed to count pulses and provide a binary output representing the counted value.
2. High-Speed Operation: The 74HCT4040D,652 operates at high speeds, making it suitable for applications that require quick counting or frequency division. At 5V supply voltage, it can handle clock frequencies up to 55 MHz, making it suitable for demanding applications.
3. Asynchronous Inputs: The IC supports asynchronous inputs that can clear the counter, enable/disable the counter, or preset the counter to a specific value. These inputs give flexibility in controlling the counting operation based on different scenarios.
4. Balanced Propagation Delays: The IC ensures balanced propagation delays among different stages of the counter, maintaining accuracy and synchronicity in counting operations. This feature prevents any ripple effects or delays that can compromise the reliability of the output
