The CD4060BM96 is a CMOS integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the CD4000 series. It is a 14-stage binary ripple counter with an internal oscillator, and it also provides a built-in-reset function. This IC is mainly used in timer and frequency division applications.
Key features of the CD4060BM96 include:
1. Binary Ripple Counter: The CD4060BM96 can count sequentially in binary from Q1 to Q14. The counter output transitions occur in a ripple fashion from one stage to another.
2. Oscillator and Clock Division: It incorporates an onboard oscillator with an external RC network or crystal connected to its oscillator pins. The oscillator frequency can be adjusted by altering the RC network or by selecting the appropriate crystal. The output of the oscillator is used to drive the counter chain, dividing the input frequency by powers of 2.
3. Programmable Division Ratio: The division ratio of the counter can be programmed by connecting the appropriate output of the counter (Q1-Q14) to the reset pin (R). Different division ratios can be achieved by selecting the output stage that resets the counter.
4. Reset Function: The CD4060BM96 features a built-in-reset function that allows the counter to be reset to zero. This can be done externally using the reset pin (R), or by applying a negative pulse to the master reset pin (MR). The counter will begin counting again from zero after reset
