Philips Semiconductors Product specification
7-stage binary ripple counter 74HC/HCT4024
FEATURES
•Output capability: standard
•ICC category: MSI
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 74HC/HCT4024 are high-speed Si-gate CMOS
devices and are pin compatible with the “4024” of the
“4000B” series. They are specified in compliance with
JEDEC standard no. 7A.
The 74HC/HCT4024 are 7-stage binary ripple counters
with a clock input (CP), an overriding asynchronous
master reset input (MR) and seven fully buffered parallel
outputs (Q0to Q6).
The counter advances on the HIGH-to-LOW transition of
CP.
A HIGH on MR clears all counter stages and forces all
outputs LOW, independent of the state of CP.
Each counter stage is a static toggle flip-flop.
Schmitt-trigger action in the clock input makes the circuit
highly tolerant to slower clock rise and fall times.
APPLICATIONS
•Frequency dividing circuits
•Time delay circuits
QUICK REFERENCE DATA
GND = 0 V; Tamb =25°C; tr=t
f= 6 ns
Notes
1. CPD is used to determine the dynamic power dissipation (PD in µW):
PD=C
PD ×VCC2×fi+∑ (CL×VCC2×fo) where:
fi= input frequency in MHz
fo= output frequency in MHz
∑(CL×VCC2×fo) = sum of outputs
CL= output load capacitance in pF
VCC = supply voltage in V
2. For HC the condition is VI= GND to VCC
For HCT the condition is VI= GND to VCC −1.5 V
