Frequently Asked Questions
How do I reset the 74HC/HCT4060 counter?
Applying a HIGH level to the Master Reset (MR) input will asynchronously reset the counter, independent of other inputs.
What are the recommended values for components when building an RC oscillator circuit?
The text recommends C > 50 pF, and for R, use values between 10 kΩ and 1 MΩ (R ≥ 1 kΩ to avoid start-up problems).
What is the maximum operating clock frequency?
The maximum clock frequency supported by the device is 87 MHz for the HC version and 88 MHz for the HCT version.
Are these devices compatible with other counter models?
Yes, the 74HC/HCT4060 are pin-compatible with the '4060' of the '4000B' series.
How is dynamic power dissipation calculated for the HC?
The total dynamic power (Pd) formula is: Pd = C × f × V + ∑(C × V × f) + 2C × V × f + ...
