Product details
Overview
CD4028BMT from Texas Instruments is a BCD-to-decimal decoder IC in a 16-pin SOIC package, operating across -55°C to +125°C, with supply voltage range 3V–18V, static current ≤1µA at 5V, and propagation delay 120ns max at 10V. It converts 4-bit binary-coded decimal inputs into ten active-high decimal outputs for digital display and control logic.
For engineers reviewing the CD4028BMT datasheet, CD4028BMT pinout, CD4028BMT application, or CD4028BMT equivalent, key selection considerations include its CMOS-compatible input thresholds, TTL-level output drive capability, wide VDD tolerance, and compatibility with legacy 4000-series logic families in industrial and instrumentation systems.
Technical Context
The CD4028BMT implements combinational logic decoding using standard CMOS NAND/NOR gate structures, with no internal latching or clocking-outputs respond asynchronously to input changes. Its truth table strictly follows BCD encoding (0000–1001), with invalid inputs (1010–1111) driving all outputs low.
Input hysteresis is absent; inputs are compatible with both CMOS and buffered TTL logic levels. Output structure is standard CMOS push-pull, capable of sourcing/sinking ±4.2mA at VDD = 15V, enabling direct LED drive with series resistors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Function | BCD-to-decimal decoder: maps 4-bit BCD inputs (A–D) to 10 active-high outputs (0–9) |
| Supply Voltage Range | 3V to 18V DC: supports battery-powered, industrial, and mixed-voltage system integration |
| Operating Temperature | -55°C to +125°C: qualified for extended-temperature industrial and automotive under-hood applications |
| Propagation Delay | 120ns max at VDD = 10V, CL = 50pF: ensures timing predictability in synchronous counter-decoder chains |
| Input Leakage Current | ≤100nA at VDD = 18V, 25°C: enables ultra-low-power standby operation in energy-constrained designs |
| Output Drive | ±4.2mA at VDD = 15V: sufficient to directly drive common-anode 7-segment displays via current-limiting resistors |
Pinout & Package
CD4028BMT is housed in a 16-pin SOIC (D) package, 3.9mm wide, 9.9mm long, 1.75mm max height, with 1.27mm pitch, RoHS-compliant NiPdAu lead finish, and MSL Level-1 rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 6, 7 | BCD Inputs (A, B, C, D) | Active-high inputs accepting standard CMOS/TTL logic levels; A = LSB, D = MSB |
| 3–5, 9–11, 13, 14 | Decimal Outputs (0–9) | Active-high decoded outputs; only one asserted per valid BCD input; all low for invalid codes |
| 12 | VDD | Positive supply terminal; must be decoupled locally with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor |
| 8 | VSS | Ground reference; requires low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide Supply Range | 3V–18V operation eliminates need for level-shifting in multi-rail systems |
| No Latch Required | Combinational decoding enables use with free-running counters without additional clock synchronization |
| High Noise Immunity | CMOS input threshold at ~50% VDD provides robust rejection of power-supply ripple and crosstalk |
| Low Static Power | Sub-microamp quiescent current allows inclusion in always-on monitoring circuits without battery drain |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar BCD-to-decimal decoding applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CD4028BM96 | Same die, identical electrical specs, SOIC-D package with tape-and-reel packaging (2500 pcs/reel) | Active production status vs. CD4028BMT's obsolete status; same footprint and thermal profile | Select CD4028BM96 for new designs requiring volume procurement and guaranteed supply continuity |
| CD4028BNSR | Same functionality, SOP-16 package (NS drawing), 2000 pcs/reel, same -55°C to +125°C rating | Slightly wider body (5.3mm vs. 3.9mm) and longer lead form; requires board layout adjustment | Choose CD4028BNSR when SOIC-D footprint is unavailable and SOP-16 assembly infrastructure is established |
Compared with CD4028BMT, CD4028BM96 offers assured availability and identical performance in the same SOIC-D package, while CD4028BNSR provides functional equivalence in a physically distinct SOP package-neither is pin-compatible with CD4028BMT due to differing package dimensions and lead forms.

FAQ
What is the function of the CD4028BMT?
The CD4028BMT is a BCD-to-decimal decoder that accepts four binary-coded decimal inputs (A–D) and drives exactly one of ten active-high outputs (0–9) corresponding to the input value. It operates combinatorially with no internal storage, making it ideal for real-time decoding of counter outputs or microcontroller BCD data. The CD4028BMT does not decode hexadecimal values-inputs 1010 through 1111 force all outputs low.
Is the CD4028BMT still in production?
No, the CD4028BMT is marked as Obsolete in TI's official packaging documentation. While limited legacy stock may exist, TI no longer manufactures this specific variant. Engineers designing new systems should consider the actively produced CD4028BM96 or CD4028BNSR as functional alternatives with verified supply chains and identical core functionality.
What package type is used for the CD4028BMT?
The CD4028BMT uses a 16-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package designated as "D" in TI's package drawings, measuring 3.9mm wide × 9.9mm long × 1.75mm maximum height, with 1.27mm lead pitch and NiPdAu lead finish. This matches the industry-standard SOIC-Narrow footprint and is compatible with standard SOIC reflow profiles.
Can the CD4028BMT drive LEDs directly?
Yes, the CD4028BMT can drive LEDs directly when used with appropriate current-limiting resistors. At VDD = 15V, each output can sink or source up to ±4.2mA, sufficient for low-current indicator LEDs. For common-anode 7-segment displays, connect segment anodes to VDD and use CD4028BMT outputs to pull cathodes low through 1–2kΩ resistors.
What is the maximum operating temperature for the CD4028BMT?
The CD4028BMT is rated for operation from -55°C to +125°C, consistent with TI's extended-temperature qualification for industrial and automotive applications. This specification applies across the full 3V–18V supply range and is validated per JEDEC JESD22-A108 stress testing protocols.
