The IC component CD4520BM is a dual binary counter with asynchronous reset, designed for use in various digital control circuits. Here is an overview of this IC component along with its key features:
1. Overview:
- CD4520BM is a CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) integrated circuit.
- It operates on a wide voltage range from 3V to 18V, making it compatible with different power supply levels.
- The IC consists of two separate 4-bit synchronous binary counters, which can be used individually or combined for more complex applications.
- CD4520BM offers asynchronous reset capability, allowing users to reset the counters to the initial state.
- It provides synchronous counting and buffered outputs for reliable signal transfer.
2. Key Features:
- Dual 4-bit Binary Counters: The IC contains two separate counters, each capable of counting up to 16 different states (from 0000 to 1111).
- Asynchronous Reset Input: CD4520BM incorporates an active low reset input that can asynchronously reset the counters to the predefined state (usually 0000).
- Synchronous Counting: The counting operation occurs synchronously with the clock input signal, ensuring accurate and reliable counting.
- Buffered Outputs: The outputs of the counters are buffered, ensuring good signal integrity and enabling easy interface with other components
