Is the cd4017 decade counter still in use?

Is the cd4017 decade counter still in use?

The CD4017 Decade Counter is a device which can count to ten based on a single input, and this has many more uses that it may, at first, appear to have. While some manufacturers have discontinued it, others are still making it and in any case, there is still plenty of supply around.

How long are the pulses on the cd4017?

With the CD4017, pulses can be as short as 100 nanoseconds for 5V operation, dropping to 30ns on 15V operation. That’s quicker than most signals the maker is working with.

How is dead time determined in radiation detection?

ABSTRACT This research is focused on dead time and the subsequent count loss estimation in radiation detection systems. The dead time is the minimum amount of time required between two events to permit detection of those events individually by a radiation detection system. If events occur during the system dead time, they are lost.

What’s the name of the decade counter diyode?

The CD4017 is based on a logic arrangement called a ‘Johnson counter’, and this one has five stages with two outputs each, hence the ten outputs and the name ‘decade counter’. If you want to know what’s going on inside, there are pretty good logic diagrams provided in the datasheets, but we promised not to get into that.

Is there an alternative to the 4017 decade counter?

It has software brightness control, and selectable 7-segment decoders. And it may be overly expensive :- (, even more than two MM5450s. But not all is lost. The CD4017 may be obsolete, but a number of the CD4000 series devices has been re-released as a HCMOS device, for the CD4017 that’s the 74HC4017, so you still can go that way.

What kind of device is called the 4017?

At heart, the device is called the 4017, and the series it belongs to is usually called the ‘4000’ series or ‘CMOS 4000’ series. You may also encounter the series referred to as just the ‘CMOS series’. However, an internet search for the term ‘4017’ will bring up all sorts of results, many of them for the postcode in Queensland.
