CD4014BF3A datasheet by Texas Instruments

CD4014BF3A Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum clock frequency that the CD4014BF3A can handle?
  The CD4014BF3A can handle clock frequencies up to 3 MHz, but it's recommended to operate it at a maximum frequency of 1 MHz for reliable operation.
• How do I reset the CD4014BF3A?
  The CD4014BF3A has a reset pin (MR) that can be pulled low to reset the counter. The reset pin must be held low for at least 10 ns to ensure a proper reset.
• What is the propagation delay time of the CD4014BF3A?
  The propagation delay time of the CD4014BF3A is typically around 30-40 ns, but it can vary depending on the operating conditions and the load capacitance.
• Can I use the CD4014BF3A as a synchronous counter?
  Yes, the CD4014BF3A can be used as a synchronous counter by connecting the clock input (CP) to the clock signal and the enable input (EN) to the enable signal. The counter will only count when the enable input is high.
• How do I cascade multiple CD4014BF3A counters?
  To cascade multiple CD4014BF3A counters, connect the carry-out pin (CO) of one counter to the clock input (CP) of the next counter. Make sure to connect the enable inputs (EN) of all counters to the same enable signal.
