Product details
Overview
M74HC4060YRM13TR from STMicroelectronics is an automotive-grade, high-speed CMOS 14-stage binary counter/oscillator in SO16 package, operating from 2 V to 6 V, delivering fMAX = 65 MHz (typ.) at VCC = 6 V, with Q12 output providing 1/16384 frequency division, and qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (−40 °C to +125 °C) for engine control and body electronics timing applications.
For engineers reviewing the M74HC4060YRM13TR datasheet, M74HC4060YRM13TR pinout, M74HC4060YRM13TR application, or M74HC4060YRM13TR equivalent, this device serves as a precision oscillator-based divider for clock tree distribution, reset-synchronized timing generation, and low-jitter RC/crystal-based reference synthesis in constrained-temperature automotive subsystems.
Technical Context
The M74HC4060YRM13TR integrates an on-chip oscillator with ∅I input and external R/C or crystal connections at ∅O/∅O pins, enabling self-contained timing without external clock sources. Its asynchronous CLEAR resets all 14 stages to zero and disables oscillator operation, while negative-edge-triggered counting ensures deterministic state transitions.
All outputs (Q4–Q14) are buffered CMOS with symmetrical drive strength (|IOH| = IOL = 4 mA min.), balanced TPLH/TPHL, and high noise immunity (VNIH/VNIL = 28% VCC min.), supporting reliable operation in electrically noisy vehicle environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2 V to 6 V - supports direct interface with 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains without level shifters |
| fMAX | 65 MHz (typ. at VCC = 6 V) - enables high-resolution timing down to ~15 ns period at highest speed grade |
| Q12 Division Ratio | 1/16384 - provides precise 1.526 kHz output from 25 MHz crystal, suitable for real-time clock (RTC) prescaling |
| ICC (Quiescent) | 4 µA max. at TA = 25 °C - enables ultra-low-power sleep-mode timing in always-on automotive modules |
| Operating Temp | −40 °C to +125 °C - meets AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements for under-hood and powertrain applications |
| ESD Robustness | HBM: 2 kV - ensures resilience against assembly-handling and in-vehicle electrostatic events |
| tPHL (CLEAR→Qn) | 17 ns typ. at VCC = 6 V - guarantees fast, predictable system reset propagation across all counter stages |
Pinout & Package
SO16 narrow-body plastic small outline package (JEDEC MS-012AC), 9.8 mm × 5.8 mm footprint, 1.27 mm pitch, 1.75 mm height, RoHS-compliant and ECOPACK® certified.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 | Q12, Q13, Q14 | Divided clock outputs; Q12 delivers 1/16384 of oscillator frequency - used for low-frequency timing references |
| 4, 5, 6, 7, 13, 14, 15 | Q4 to Q10 | Intermediate division taps (1/16 to 1/1024); support flexible clock tree branching and multi-rate signal generation |
| 9, 10 | ∅O, ∅O | External capacitor/resistor connection points for RC oscillator configuration - sets fundamental oscillation frequency |
| 11 | ∅I | Primary clock input / oscillator feedback node - accepts external clock or drives crystal between ∅I–∅O/∅O |
| 12 | CLEAR | Asynchronous master reset - forces all Q outputs low and halts oscillator; active-high, TTL-compatible threshold |
| 8 | GND | Dedicated ground reference - must be low-impedance for stable oscillator bias and noise immunity |
| 16 | VCC | Positive supply rail - powers internal logic and output buffers; decoupling capacitor required at pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| RC/Crystal Oscillator Integration | Eliminates need for external oscillator IC or dedicated clock generator - reduces BOM count and PCB area in timing-critical modules |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar binary counter/oscillator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74HC4060DR | Commercial-grade (−40 °C to +85 °C), no AEC-Q100 qualification; identical SO16 pinout and AC specs at 5 V | Limited to cabin infotainment or non-safety-critical modules; not rated for under-hood thermal cycling | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive qualification requirements and ambient temperature stays below 85 °C |
| CD74HC4060M96 | Same commercial temp range; TI's version shows 55 MHz fMAX (vs. 65 MHz typ. for ST), higher ICC (8 µA max.) | Suitable for industrial PLC timing but lacks ESD robustness (HBM = 2 kV vs. TI's 1.5 kV) for automotive harness environments | Prefer for legacy TI-design ecosystems where cross-vendor validation is already complete |
Compared with SN74HC4060DR and CD74HC4060M96, the M74HC4060YRM13TR uniquely combines AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, 65 MHz speed, and 2 kV HBM ESD - making it the only choice for timing-critical powertrain and ADAS subsystems requiring guaranteed operation across full automotive temperature extremes.

FAQ
Can M74HC4060YRM13TR operate with a 3.3 V supply?
Yes - its specified VCC range is 2 V to 6 V, and all DC/AC parameters are guaranteed across that range. At 3.3 V, fMAX is 30 MHz (min.), tPLH/tPHL is 75 ns (max.), and output drive remains ≥4 mA, making it fully compatible with 3.3 V microcontroller interfaces and peripherals.
What crystal types are supported on ∅I/∅O pins?
The device supports fundamental-mode parallel-resonant AT-cut quartz crystals from 100 kHz to 25 MHz. ST recommends crystals with load capacitance ≤20 pF and ESR ≤100 Ω; external 1–10 MΩ feedback resistor is required between ∅I and ∅O for stable oscillation startup and amplitude control.
How does CLEAR affect oscillator operation?
A high-level signal on CLEAR forces all Q outputs low and disables the internal oscillator circuit - stopping oscillation at ∅I regardless of external R/C or crystal connection. Oscillation resumes only after CLEAR returns low and sufficient time elapses for internal bias stabilization (tREM = 9 ns min. at VCC = 6 V).
Is there a recommended layout practice for ∅O/∅O pins?
Yes - minimize trace length between ∅O and ∅O, keep them away from digital switching nets, and place the external timing capacitor directly adjacent to ∅O with shortest possible path. Use ground guard ring around both pins and avoid routing beneath the device to prevent parasitic coupling that degrades oscillator stability.
