Product details
Overview
74LV4060DB,118 from Nexperia is a 14-stage binary ripple counter/divider with integrated RC or crystal oscillator circuitry, operating from 1.0 V to 5.5 V supply. It features ten buffered outputs (Q3–Q9, Q11–Q13), asynchronous master reset (MR), and oscillator terminals (RS, RTC, CTC) enabling precision timing in low-power embedded control systems.
For engineers reviewing the 74LV4060DB,118 datasheet, 74LV4060DB,118 pinout, 74LV4060DB,118 application, or 74LV4060DB,118 equivalent, this device serves as a self-contained frequency divider and timer core - critical for clock tree partitioning, delay generation, and event counting where supply flexibility and oscillator integration reduce external component count.
Technical Context
The 74LV4060DB,118 implements a synchronous-cascade 14-bit ripple counter with edge-triggered advance on the HIGH-to-LOW transition of RS. Its oscillator section supports both RC networks (Rt ≥ 1 kΩ, Ct > 50 pF) and parallel-resonant crystals (e.g., 32.768 kHz or 1 MHz), with internal biasing and feedback paths eliminating need for external transistors.
Inputs include clamp diodes enabling interface to voltages exceeding VCC via current-limiting resistors; output stages drive ±6 mA at VCC = 3.0 V with VOH ≥ 2.40 V and VOL ≤ 0.2 V under load, ensuring robust TTL/CMOS interoperability across its 1.0–5.5 V operating range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.0 V to 5.5 V - enables direct operation from single-cell Li-ion, 3.3 V logic rails, or 5 V legacy systems without level translation. |
| Counter Stages | 14-stage binary ripple - provides division ratios up to 2¹⁴ = 16384, supporting precise sub-Hz timing from MHz inputs. |
| Output Count | 10 buffered outputs (Q3–Q9, Q11–Q13) - delivers non-overlapping timing taps for cascaded delays or multi-rate control signals. |
| Max Clock Frequency | 100 MHz at VCC = 5.0 V - supports high-speed division in digital signal routing and programmable logic timing chains. |
| Oscillator Support | RC or crystal (parallel mode) - eliminates need for external oscillator ICs; RTC/CTC pins configure frequency-setting network directly. |
| Reset Type | Asynchronous master reset (MR) - clears all stages independently of clock, enabling deterministic initialization in safety-critical sequences. |
| ESD Rating | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - ensures robust handling during PCB assembly and field service in industrial environments. |
Pinout & Package
74LV4060DB,118 is housed in a plastic small outline package (SO16), SOT109-1, with 16 leads and 3.9 mm body width. Pin 1 is marked by a notch or dot; the package is RoHS-compliant and rated for -40 °C to +125 °C ambient operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 (Q11, Q12, Q13) | Counter output | High-order division taps (2¹¹ to 2¹³); buffered for fanout and noise immunity in timing distribution. |
| 4, 5, 6, 7, 13, 14, 15 (Q9, Q7, Q6, Q5, Q8, Q4, Q3) | Counter output | Mid- and low-order division outputs (2³ to 2⁹); enable flexible tap selection for multi-rate clocks or sequential logic. |
| 8 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for all internal logic and oscillator current; must be low-impedance for stable oscillation. |
| 9 (CTC) | Oscillator capacitor terminal | Connects external timing capacitor in RC mode; forms RC time constant with RTC to set oscillator frequency. |
| 10 (RTC) | Oscillator resistor terminal | Connects external timing resistor in RC mode; bias path for internal inverter-based oscillator loop. |
| 11 (RS) | Clock input / oscillator node | Accepts external clock or drives internal oscillator; counter advances on falling edge; floating when using crystal. |
| 12 (MR) | Master reset | Active-HIGH asynchronous clear; forces all outputs LOW regardless of RS state or supply voltage level. |
| 16 (VCC) | Power supply | Single-supply rail powering all logic and oscillator circuitry; decoupling capacitor required near pin for stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide VCC range (1.0–5.5 V) | Enables drop-in use across battery-powered, 3.3 V microcontroller, and 5 V industrial control systems without redesign. |
| Integrated oscillator circuitry | Eliminates external inverter or crystal driver ICs; supports both RC (1 Hz–100 kHz) and crystal (kHz–MHz) configurations. |
| Clamp diode-equipped inputs | Permits safe interfacing to signals exceeding VCC (e.g., 5 V GPIO driving 3.3 V logic) using simple series resistors. |
| Low dynamic power dissipation | CPD = 40 pF enables <1 µW/MHz dynamic power at 3.3 V - critical for always-on timing in energy-constrained IoT nodes. |
| Latch-up immunity | Exceeds 100 mA per JESD78 Class II Level B - prevents destructive latch-up during transient overvoltage events. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar binary counter/oscillator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CD4060BE | Higher VCC range (3–15 V), slower max fmax (12 MHz @ 10 V), no clamp diodes, CMOS-only input thresholds. | Requires level-shifting for 1.8 V/3.3 V systems; unsuitable for low-voltage battery operation below 3 V. | Select CD4060BE only for legacy 5 V/12 V designs where higher voltage tolerance outweighs speed and power penalties. |
| SN74LV4060AD | Same logic family and pinout, but TSSOP16 (SOT403-1) package; identical electrical specs and oscillator behavior. | No functional difference - differs only in thermal resistance (8.5 mW/K derating above 91 °C vs. 12.4 mW/K for SO16). | Choose SN74LV4060AD for space-constrained PCBs needing finer pitch; otherwise, 74LV4060DB,118 offers superior thermal margin in high-ambient environments. |
Compared with CD4060BE and SN74LV4060AD, the 74LV4060DB,118 uniquely combines ultra-low-voltage operation (down to 1.0 V), integrated oscillator support, and SO16 thermal performance - making it optimal for modern low-power embedded timing where supply headroom and board area are constrained.

FAQ
Can the 74LV4060DB,118 operate with a 1.2 V supply?
Yes - the device is fully specified down to VCC = 1.2 V for DC characteristics and guaranteed functional operation at 1.0 V. At 1.2 V, propagation delay is 180 ns (typ), and oscillator startup is supported with Rt ≥ 1 kΩ and Ct > 50 pF. Input thresholds scale with VCC, maintaining noise margin.
What happens if RTC and CTC pins are left unconnected while using an external clock on RS?
When RS receives an external clock, RTC and CTC must be left floating - not tied to VCC or GND - to prevent loading or biasing the internal oscillator inverter stage. Connecting them risks unpredictable oscillation, increased power draw, or failure to advance the counter reliably on RS edges.
How does the master reset (MR) interact with the oscillator circuit?
MR is asynchronous and overrides all internal states: when asserted HIGH, it forces all outputs LOW and halts oscillator activity immediately. The oscillator resumes only after MR returns LOW and RS transitions HIGH→LOW - no re-start delay or synchronization is required.
Is the 74LV4060DB,118 compatible with 32.768 kHz crystals?
Yes - the oscillator supports parallel-resonant crystals including 32.768 kHz units. Use R2 = 2.2 kΩ (power limiting), C2 ≈ 100 pF (stray compensation), and C3 = 22–37 pF (load capacitance) per Fig. 15. Startup time is typically < 1 s at 25 °C and VCC ≥ 2.7 V.
