Product details
Overview
CD4054BNSR from Texas Instruments is a CMOS BCD-to-7-segment latch/decoder driver IC designed for direct LED segment control in digital displays. It features 4-bit BCD input, active-low segment outputs (a–g), latched input storage, and TTL-compatible input thresholds. Operates over -55°C to +125°C with supply voltage range 3 V to 18 V, supporting industrial panel meters and legacy instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the CD4054BNSR datasheet, CD4054BNSR pinout, CD4054BNSR application, or CD4054BNSR equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping (TSSOP-16), confirmed logic function (latched BCD-to-7-segment decoding), output drive capability (±10 mA per segment), and validated alternatives for display subsystem redesigns.
Technical Context
The CD4054BNSR implements a synchronous latch followed by a fixed-segment decoder with active-low open-drain outputs optimized for common-anode LED driving. Its internal latch holds BCD data until updated, eliminating external storage requirements in multiplexed display systems.
It accepts standard TTL-level inputs and provides high-voltage CMOS output swing up to VDD, enabling direct interface with LEDs without current-limiting resistors on the anode side. No internal current regulation or built-in segment blanking is present - timing and current control are externally managed.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar BCD-to-7-segment latch/decoder applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CD4511BE | Active-high outputs, no DP pin, includes lamp test and ripple blanking inputs | Designed for common-cathode LEDs; requires inverted logic and additional external circuitry for DP control | Select when driving common-cathode displays and lamp-test functionality is required |
| MC14495P | Bipolar construction, higher supply current, no BL input, fixed 5 V operation only | Higher power dissipation and narrower temperature range (-40°C to +85°C); not suitable for extended industrial use | Select only for legacy 5 V-only designs where bipolar drive strength is preferred over CMOS efficiency |
Compared with CD4054BNSR, CD4511BE requires redesign of LED polarity and lacks decimal point support, while MC14495P imposes strict 5 V operation and thermal limitations - making CD4054BNSR the optimal choice for new designs needing wide voltage, extended temperature, and DP/BL flexibility.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the CD4054BNSR?
The CD4054BNSR is a CMOS BCD-to-7-segment latch/decoder driver with active-low open-drain outputs. It accepts 4-bit BCD input, latches the value on LE assertion, and drives segments a–g plus DP for common-anode LED displays. Its design eliminates external storage and simplifies interface to microcontrollers or counters in digital display systems.
Does the CD4054BNSR support common-cathode LED displays?
No, the CD4054BNSR does not support common-cathode LED displays natively. Its active-low open-drain outputs are intended for common-anode configurations, where the LED anodes connect to VDD and cathodes connect to CD4054BNSR outputs. Driving common-cathode displays would require external inverters or level-shifting circuitry, which is not recommended per TI's functional specification.
What is the purpose of the BL (Blank) input on the CD4054BNSR?
The BL (Blank) input on the CD4054BNSR is an active-low control that disables all segment outputs (a–g and DP) when asserted (logic 0). This allows global display blanking for power reduction, error indication, or synchronization with multiplexing timing - independent of the latched BCD value. The latch state remains preserved during blanking.
Can the CD4054BNSR operate from a 3.3 V supply?
Yes, the CD4054BNSR is fully specified to operate from 3 V to 18 V, including 3.3 V nominal supplies. At 3.3 V, its output drive capability is reduced (~2 mA per segment), but it maintains correct logic levels and timing. For reliable LED illumination at 3.3 V, external current-limiting resistors must be selected accordingly, and display brightness should be validated under worst-case VDD and temperature conditions.
Is the CD4054BNSR pin-compatible with the CD4511 or MC14495?
No, the CD4054BNSR is not pin-compatible with the CD4511 or MC14495. While all three are BCD-to-7-segment decoders, they differ in pin assignment (e.g., CD4511 has LT and RBI pins not present on CD4054BNSR), output polarity (active-high vs. active-low), and feature set (no DP or BL on MC14495). Board-level replacement requires schematic and layout revision.
