CD4027BE datasheet by Texas Instruments

CD4027BE Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum clock frequency that the CD4027BE can handle?
  The CD4027BE can handle clock frequencies up to 10 MHz.
• How do I ensure that the CD4027BE is properly powered?
  The CD4027BE requires a single 5V power supply, and it's recommended to use a decoupling capacitor (e.g., 0.1uF) between VCC and GND to ensure stable operation.
• What is the maximum input voltage that the CD4027BE can tolerate?
  The CD4027BE can tolerate input voltages up to 15V, but it's recommended to keep input voltages within the 0-5V range for reliable operation.
• How do I reset the CD4027BE?
  The CD4027BE has a asynchronous reset input (MR) that can be used to reset the counter. A low-going pulse on the MR input will reset the counter to zero.
• Can I use the CD4027BE as a frequency divider?
  Yes, the CD4027BE can be used as a frequency divider. By connecting the Q output to the CLK input, you can create a divide-by-2 frequency divider.
