Overview
The CD4060BMT, produced by Texas Instruments, is a highly versatile integrated circuit that combines an oscillator section with 14 ripple-carry binary counter stages. This device is designed to be used in a variety of applications requiring timing and counting functions. The oscillator configuration allows for the design of either RC or crystal oscillator circuits, providing flexibility in system design. A RESET input is included, which resets the counter to the all-O’s state and disables the oscillator, ensuring precise control over the counting process. All counter stages are master-slave flip-flops, and the state of the counter is advanced one step in binary order on the negative transition of the input pulse. The device features fully buffered inputs and outputs, along with Schmitt trigger action on the input-pulse line, allowing for unlimited input-pulse rise and fall times.
