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
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.
“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
APPLICATIONS
• Frequency dividing circuits
• Time delay circuits
