CD4040 12 Stage Binary Ripple Counter IC (CD4040 IC)

The CD4040 is a CMOS 12 stage binary ripple counter designed for frequency division and counting applications. It divides the input clock signal into multiple lower frequency outputs across its stages.

This IC is used in timers, digital clocks, and frequency divider circuits where sequential binary counting and signal division are required. It operates over a wide supply voltage range with low power consumption.
