CD4516BNSR datasheet by Texas Instruments

CD4516BNSR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum clock frequency that the CD4516BNSR can handle?
  The CD4516BNSR can handle clock frequencies up to 10 MHz, but it's recommended to operate it at a maximum frequency of 5 MHz for reliable operation.
• How do I ensure that the CD4516BNSR is properly reset during power-up?
  To ensure proper reset, connect the Reset (R) pin to VCC through a 1 kΩ resistor and a 0.1 μF capacitor to ground. This ensures that the device is reset during power-up and prevents any unwanted behavior.
• What is the recommended operating voltage range for the CD4516BNSR?
  The recommended operating voltage range for the CD4516BNSR is 4.5 V to 5.5 V. Operating the device outside this range may affect its performance and reliability.
• How do I interface the CD4516BNSR with a microcontroller?
  The CD4516BNSR can be interfaced with a microcontroller using a serial interface. Connect the Clock (CLK) pin to the microcontroller's clock output, and the Data (D) pin to the microcontroller's data output. Use a serial communication protocol such as SPI or I2C to transfer data between the microcontroller and the CD4516BNSR.
• What is the purpose of the Enable (E) pin on the CD4516BNSR?
  The Enable (E) pin is used to enable or disable the CD4516BNSR. When the E pin is high, the device is enabled, and when it's low, the device is disabled. This pin can be used to power-down the device when not in use to conserve power.
