Product Overview: 74HC4024N by NXP

The 74HC4024N is a high-speed Si-gate CMOS device and is pin compatible with low-power Schottky TTL (LSTTL). Manufactured by NXP Semiconductors, a leader in the electronics industry, this integrated circuit is designed to deliver robust performance for a variety of digital applications. The 74HC4024N is a 7-stage binary ripple counter with a clock input (CP), an overriding asynchronous master reset input (MR), and seven fully buffered outputs (Q0 to Q6).

The device features a counter that advances on the negative-going transition of the clock input. Users can easily reset the counter to its zero state by using the asynchronous master reset by applying a high level to the MR input. The buffered outputs of the 74HC4024N ensure minimal propagation delay and support the driving of high fan-out loads over long cable lengths, making it an ideal choice for various counting applications.

Key specifications of the 74HC4024N include:

• Voltage range: 2.0 to 6.0 V
• High noise immunity
• Low power consumption: Typical 0.2 μW
• High-speed performance: Typical tpd 14 ns
• Output capability: Standard
• ICC category: MSI

The 74HC4024N is provided in a 14-pin DIP (Dual In-line Package), which is suitable for through-hole mounting, making it easy to integrate into a wide range of electronic circuits. The robust design of the 74HC4024N ensures that it can operate over a wide temperature range, making it suitable for industrial applications.

Applications for the 74HC4024N are diverse and include:

• Frequency division
• Time delay generation
• Counter design and implementation
