The CD4021BM96 is a high-quality, reliable integrated circuit (IC) manufactured by Texas Instruments, a renowned global semiconductor company known for its precision engineering and innovative design. This product is part of the advanced CMOS logic family and is designed to offer maximum functionality and performance in electronic devices. The CD4021BM96 is an 8-stage parallel or serial-input/serial output shift register. It has three significant modes of operation: parallel load, shift right, and inhibit clock. The parallel load is activated when the shift or load input is at a low logical level. The shift right operation is performed synchronously with the rising edge of the clock when the shift or load input is at a high logical level. The inhibit clock mode is activated when the clock inhibit input is at a high logical level. This IC has a wide supply voltage range from 3V to 18V, making it highly versatile for use in a range of electronic applications. It operates at a maximum clock frequency of 24 MHz, ensuring fast and efficient data transfer. The CD4021BM96 is designed to provide high-speed, low-power performance, with typical power dissipation as low as 5uW. The CD4021BM96 is available in a SOIC package, which is a surface-mount package that ensures easy integration into electronic systems. It comprises 16 pins, each designed for a specific function, including data input, clock input, parallel outputs, and serial output. The IC can operate over a wide temperature range, from -55°C to +125°C, ensuring reliable performance in various environmental conditions. The CD4021BM96 from Texas Instruments is RoHS compliant, meaning it is manufactured without harmful substances, making it environmentally friendly. This IC is widely used in various applications such as data storage, data manipulation, time delay, and control circuitry. It is designed to meet the high standards of quality and reliability that Texas Instruments is known for, making it a reliable choice for your electronic design needs.
