CD4017BE Horinktor CMOS 4017 Decoded Output Counter IC 3V to 15V DIP16

Description

Product Overview

The CD4017BE Horinktor CMOS counter IC is a versatile ten‑stage decoded output device designed for a broad spectrum of electronic applications. Built on a reliable CMOS process, it operates comfortably from 3 V up to 15 V, delivering consistent performance across low‑power and higher‑voltage environments. Its fully static operation means the counter can be halted at any stage without loss of state, making it ideal for precise timing, sequencing, and division tasks. The device features a DIP‑16 package that simplifies soldering and board layout, while its low quiescent current of approximately 10 µW helps extend battery life in portable designs. High noise immunity, rated at 0.45 VDD typical, ensures stable operation even in electrically noisy settings, and the TTL‑compatible inputs allow seamless integration with a wide range of logic families.

Usage

Engineers and hobbyists alike can employ the CD4017BE in a multitude of scenarios. In industrial automation, it serves as a reliable step counter for motor control, conveyor belt indexing, and LED sequencing. In educational labs, the IC provides a hands‑on example of binary counting and decoded output logic, helping students visualize state transitions. Designers of portable devices benefit from its ultra‑low power draw, enabling long‑term operation in battery‑powered gadgets such as remote sensors, wearable electronics, and low‑energy timers. The wide supply voltage range also makes it suitable for automotive applications where voltage fluctuations are common, ensuring consistent performance from start‑up to full operation. Its DIP‑16 footprint fits comfortably on prototype boards, breadboards, and small‑form‑factor PCBs, facilitating rapid development and testing.
