CD4041UBF3A datasheet by Texas Instruments

CD4041UBF3A Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended operating voltage range for CD4041UBF3A?
  The recommended operating voltage range for CD4041UBF3A is 3V to 15V, although it can operate from 2V to 18V with reduced performance.
• How do I ensure the CD4041UBF3A is properly powered on and off?
  To ensure proper power-on and power-off, connect a 0.1uF to 1uF capacitor between VCC and GND, and a 1kΩ to 10kΩ pull-up resistor between VCC and the enable input (if used).
• What is the maximum clock frequency supported by CD4041UBF3A?
  The maximum clock frequency supported by CD4041UBF3A is 10MHz, although it can operate at higher frequencies with reduced performance and increased power consumption.
• How do I handle the asynchronous reset input (MR) in CD4041UBF3A?
  The asynchronous reset input (MR) should be connected to VCC through a 1kΩ to 10kΩ pull-up resistor, and a 0.1uF to 1uF capacitor to GND to ensure proper reset operation.
• What is the purpose of the enable input (E) in CD4041UBF3A?
  The enable input (E) is used to enable or disable the counter. When E is high, the counter is enabled, and when E is low, the counter is disabled and the outputs are in a high-impedance state.
