Description: CD4060 Binary Counter IC CD 4060 Dual In Package DIP 16 Pin IC

The CD4060BC is a 12-stage ripple carry binary counter. The state of the counter is advanced one count on the negative transition of each clock pulse. The counters are reset to the zero state by a logical “1” at the reset input independent of clock.

The CD4060 is aCMOS chip with a binary counter and oscillator included. This is because it has a built-in oscillator module that only requires a few passive electronic components. From only two resistors and one capacitor it can create 10 different frequencies .

Where to use CD4060 IC

TheIC CD4060is a 14-bitBinary Counter ICfrom Texas Instruments. It has 12 output pins ranging from Q1 to Q14 excluding Q2 and Q3. When an Input clock pulse is given to the pin for each pulse the binary value gets incremented from 00 0000 0000 0000 to 11 1111 1111 1111 which is equivalent for 0 to 16383 in decimal.

This behavior of the IC can be used to build counters and Dividers, also it is very commonly used for timing related applications. So if you are looking for a 14-bit binary counter which can be incremented through a clock pulse then this IC might be of interest to you.
