Each counter counts from 0 to 9 in BCD (0000 to 1001) and rolls over to 0. The dual clocking scheme offers flexibility: (1) Clock on the CLK pin with EN=HIGH \u2014 counting on the rising edge of CLK. (2) Clock on the EN pin with CLK=LOW \u2014 counting on the falling edge of EN. This allows either positive-edge or negative-edge triggering. The asynchronous master reset (MR=HIGH) immediately resets all four outputs to 0 regardless of clock. For multi-digit counting, the Q3 output (MSB) of one counter connects to the CLK of the next counter: when the first counter rolls from 9 to 0, Q3 transitions from HIGH to LOW and back \u2014 a positive edge on the next counter's CLK, incrementing the next digit. The CD4518 is simpler than the CD4029 (no up\/down or binary\/decade selection) but provides two counters in one 16-pin package, making it efficient for multi-digit BCD displays. The BE suffix denotes the PDIP-16 package.","working_principle":"Each BCD counter in the CD4518BE is a 4-bit synchronous counter that sequences through 0000, 0001, 0010, ... 1001, then rolls over to 0000. The counter advances when: (a) a rising edge occurs on CLK while EN is HIGH, or (b) a falling edge occurs on EN while CLK is LOW. When neither condition is met, the counter holds its value. The MR (master reset) input is asynchronous: when MR=HIGH, all Q outputs go to 0 immediately regardless of CLK and EN states. For normal counting, MR must be LOW. The Q3 output goes HIGH at count 8 and returns LOW at count 0 (rollover), providing a carry signal for cascading. To cascade for 2-digit (0-99) counting: Q3 of counter 1 \u2192 CLK of counter 2; EN of both counters tied HIGH; MR of both tied together for simultaneous reset. For frequency division: Q1 divides clock by 2, Q2 by 4, Q3 provides a pulse every 10 clocks (decade divider). The BCD outputs (Q1-Q4) connect directly to BCD-to-7-segment decoders like CD4511 for display driving.","pin_description":"<table border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"4\">\n<tr><th>Pin<\/th><th>Name<\/th><th>Type<\/th><th>Description<\/th><\/tr>\n<tr><td>1<\/td><td>1CLK<\/td><td>Input<\/td><td>Counter 1 clock (positive edge when 1EN=HIGH)<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>2<\/td><td>1EN<\/td><td>Input<\/td><td>Counter 1 clock enable (HIGH=enable, negative edge triggers when 1CLK=LOW)<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>3<\/td><td>1Q1<\/td><td>Output<\/td><td>Counter 1 output LSB<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>4<\/td><td>1Q2<\/td><td>Output<\/td><td>Counter 1 output bit 2<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>5<\/td><td>1Q3<\/td><td>Output<\/td><td>Counter 1 output bit 3<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>6<\/td><td>1Q4<\/td><td>Output<\/td><td>Counter 1 output MSB<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>7<\/td><td>1MR<\/td><td>Input<\/td><td>Counter 1 master reset (active HIGH)<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>8<\/td><td>VSS<\/td><td>Power<\/td><td>Ground<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>9<\/td><td>2MR<\/td><td>Input<\/td><td>Counter 2 master reset (active HIGH)<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>10<\/td><td>2Q4<\/td><td>Output<\/td><td>Counter 2 output MSB<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>11<\/td><td>2Q3<\/td><td>Output<\/td><td>Counter 2 output bit 3<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>12<\/td><td>2Q2<\/td><td>Output<\/td><td>Counter 2 output bit 2<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>13<\/td><td>2Q1<\/td><td>Output<\/td><td>Counter 2 output LSB<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>14<\/td><td>2EN<\/td><td>Input<\/td><td>Counter 2 clock enable<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>15<\/td><td>2CLK<\/td><td>Input<\/td><td>Counter 2 clock<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>16<\/td><td>VDD<\/td><td>Power<\/td><td>Supply (3V to 18V)<\/td><\/tr>\n<\/table>","application_scenarios":"<ul>\n<li><strong>2-Digit Counter (0-99):<\/strong> Pulses \u2192 1CLK (1EN=HIGH); 1Q4 \u2192 2CLK (2EN=HIGH); both MR tied together; Q1-Q4 each \u2192 CD4511 \u2192 7-segment display<\/li>\n<li><strong>Decade Divider:<\/strong> Clock \u2192 1CLK; 1Q4 output = pulse every 10 clocks; divide-by-10 frequency divider<\/li>\n<li><strong>Divide-by-100:<\/strong> Two CD4518 counters cascaded; 1Q4 \u2192 2CLK; 2Q4 \u2192 3CLK (second chip); 100 pulses per output pulse<\/li>\n<li><strong>Event Counter:<\/strong> Sensor pulses \u2192 1CLK; 1EN=HIGH; 1MR=reset button; Q1-Q4 read by MCU or displayed<\/li>\n<\/ul>","alternative_models":"<table border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"4\">\n<tr><th>Model<\/th><th>Manufacturer<\/th><th>Key Difference<\/th><th>Package<\/th><th>Supply<\/th><\/tr>\n<tr><td>CD4518BM<\/td><td>TI<\/td><td>SOIC-16 surface-mount version with identical logic function and 3-18V range<\/td><td>SOIC-16<\/td><td>3-18V<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>CD4518BE<\/td><td>TI<\/td><td>Through-hole DIP version for prototyping and legacy board repair<\/td><td>DIP-16<\/td><td>3-18V<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>HEF4518BT<\/td><td>NXP<\/td><td>Pin-compatible CMOS version with improved ESD protection and 3-15V supply<\/td><td>SOIC-16<\/td><td>3-15V<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>MC144518BDR2G<\/td><td>onsemi<\/td><td>Pin-compatible equivalent with RoHS compliance and AEC-Q100 automotive option<\/td><td>SOIC-16<\/td><td>3-18V<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>74HC4518D<\/td><td>TI\/Nexperia<\/td><td>HC CMOS version with higher speed and 2-6V supply for modern logic systems<\/td><td>SOIC-16<\/td><td>2-6V<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>74HC4518N<\/td><td>TI\/Nexperia<\/td><td>HC CMOS through-hole version for prototyping with 2-6V supply range<\/td><td>DIP-16<\/td><td>2-6V<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>74HCT4518D<\/td><td>Nexperia<\/td><td>HCT version with TTL-compatible inputs for mixed 5V TTL\/CMOS systems<\/td><td>SOIC-16<\/td><td>4.5-5.5V<\/td><\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p>CD4518 is the CMOS 4000-series dual bcd up counter operating over the wide 3-18V supply range.
