The maximum clock frequency for the CD74HCT4060M is 30 MHz, but it can vary depending on the specific application and operating conditions. It's recommended to check the device's timing characteristics and perform thorough testing to ensure reliable operation.
The CD74HCT4060M does not have a built-in power-up reset. It's recommended to use an external reset circuit or a power-on reset (POR) IC to ensure that the device is properly reset during power-up. This can help prevent unexpected behavior or errors during startup.
The recommended operating voltage range for the CD74HCT4060M is 4.5V to 5.5V. Operating the device outside of this range may affect its performance, reliability, or even cause damage.
While the CD74HCT4060M is specified for 5V operation, it can be used in a 3.3V system with some limitations. The device's input and output voltage levels will need to be adjusted accordingly, and the operating frequency may need to be reduced. It's recommended to consult the datasheet and perform thorough testing to ensure reliable operation.
The output enable (OE) pin of the CD74HCT4060M is active-low, meaning that the outputs are enabled when OE is low ( Logic 0) and disabled when OE is high (Logic 1). Make sure to connect the OE pin to a valid logic level or use a pull-up/pull-down resistor to prevent unwanted output states.
