The CD74HC4024PWT is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the CD74HC series family. It is a 7-stage ripple-carry binary counter which consists of a mod-16 binary counter and an input/output control section. This IC component is commonly used in various digital electronic applications such as frequency division, time-delay generation, and counting.
Some of the key features of the CD74HC4024PWT include:
1. High-speed operation: The CD74HC4024PWT operates at a high-speed clock frequency, allowing for efficient counting and time-delay generation.
2. Ripple-carry output: This IC component incorporates a ripple-carry output, enabling the connection of multiple CD74HC4024PWT chips for expanding the counting range.
3. Mod-16 binary counter: The CD74HC4024PWT is a 7-stage binary counter, meaning it can count up to 2^7 (or 128) different states before resetting.
4. Input/Output control: The IC includes an input/output control section that allows for easy control of data input and output functions.
5. Schmitt-trigger action: The CD74HC4024PWT features Schmitt-trigger inputs, providing improved noise immunity and hysteresis in the input digital signals
