Each clock pulse increments a 12-bit count, and the twelve outputs (QA through QL) present the running total, so any output is the clock divided by a power of two (QA is divide-by-2, QL is divide-by-4096). A single asynchronous clear resets everything to zero. It is the compact way to generate a set of related clock divisions, build long timers, or produce a slow tick from a fast oscillator. Runs 2-6 V. Pin-identical to the CD4040.++## Pinout++| Pin | Name | Type | Function |+|---|---|---|---|+| 1 | QL | output | Counter stage 12 output (Q12, MSB). Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at 5 V. Toggles on the falling edge of stage 11's output; frequency = fCLK / 4096. |+| 2 | QF | output | Counter stage 6 output (Q6). Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at 5 V. Frequency = fCLK / 64. |+| 3 | QE | output | Counter stage 5 output (Q5). Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at 5 V. Frequency = fCLK / 32. |+| 4 | QG | output | Counter stage 7 output (Q7). Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at 5 V. Frequency = fCLK / 128. |+| 5 | QD | output | Counter stage 4 output (Q4). Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at 5 V. Frequency = fCLK / 16. |+| 6 | QC | output | Counter stage 3 output (Q3). Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at 5 V. Frequency = fCLK / 8. |+| 7 | QB | output | Counter stage 2 output (Q2). Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at 5 V. Frequency = fCLK / 4. |+| 8 | GND | power_in | Ground / negative supply return. 0 V reference for VCC and all logic levels. |+| 9 | QA | output | Counter stage 1 output (Q1, LSB). Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at 5 V. Toggles on each falling edge of CLK; frequency = fCLK / 2. |+| 10 | CLK | input | Clock input. Counter advances on the high-to-low (falling-edge) transition. Standard CMOS logic input: VIH ≥ 3.15 V and VIL ≤ 1.35 V at VCC = 4.5 V. Max clock frequency = 25 MHz at VCC = 6 V. |+| 11 | CLR | input | Asynchronous master reset (active high). A high level asynchronously clears the counter and forces all Q outputs low, independent of CLK. Standard CMOS logic input. |+| 12 | QI | output | Counter stage 9 output (Q9). Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at 5 V. Frequency = fCLK / 512. |+| 13 | QH | output | Counter stage 8 output (Q8). Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at 5 V. Frequency = fCLK / 256. |+| 14 | QJ | output | Counter stage 10 output (Q10). Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at 5 V. Frequency = fCLK / 1024. |+| 15 | QK | output | Counter stage 11 output (Q11). Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at 5 V. Frequency = fCLK / 2048. |+| 16 | VCC | power_in | Positive supply input. Operating range 2 V to 6 V (absolute max 7 V). Bypass with a 0.1 µF ceramic close to the pin; a paralleled 1 µF is also recommended. ICC ≤ 80 µA (74HC) with static inputs. |++## Key specifications++| Parameter | Value |+|---|---|+| Type | 12-stage binary ripple counter |+| Outputs | 12 (QA-QL, powers of two) |+| Division | divide-by-2 up to divide-by-4096 |+| Clock | negative-edge triggered |+| Reset | asynchronous clear (active-high) |+| Logic family | HC (high-speed CMOS) |+| Supply voltage | 2-6 V |+| Package | SOIC-16 |++## Ordering variants++- `SN74HC4040D (SOIC-16, tube)`+- `SN74HC4040DR (SOIC-16, tape & reel)`++## CAD (KiCad official)++- Symbol: `4xxx:4040 (pin-compatible with 74HC4040)`+- Footprint: `Package_SO:SOIC-16_3.9x9.9mm_P1.27mm`+- 3D model: SOIC-16 (KiCad packages3D)++## Provenance++Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:++- **Datasheet:** [Texas Instruments datasheet](https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/sn74hc4040.pdf) (31 pp, sha256 `ad1231c1bceb2364`, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: manufacturer)+- **Extractor:** `ds2sf` (Claude).
