CD4012B

Texas Instruments · Logic Gate · SOIC-14

The CD4012B contains two independent 4-input NAND gates; each output is low only when all four inputs are high. It runs from 3 V to 18 V, part of the 4000B CMOS logic family.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 J output Gate 1 NAND output. J = NOT(A AND B AND C AND D). CMOS output rail-to-rail; sinks/sources ~1 mA at VDD = 5 V.
2 A input Gate 1 NAND input A. High-impedance CMOS input protected by an internal ESD network; VIH = 3.5 V min at VDD = 5 V.
3 B input Gate 1 NAND input B. High-impedance CMOS input protected by an internal ESD network.
4 C input Gate 1 NAND input C. High-impedance CMOS input protected by an internal ESD network.
5 D input Gate 1 NAND input D. High-impedance CMOS input protected by an internal ESD network.
6 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to VDD/VSS as convenient; datasheet notes NC = no connection.
7 VSS power_in Negative supply / ground reference. Connect to 0 V. All input/output voltages are referenced to VSS.
8 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to VDD/VSS as convenient.
9 E input Gate 2 NAND input E. High-impedance CMOS input protected by an internal ESD network.
10 F input Gate 2 NAND input F. High-impedance CMOS input protected by an internal ESD network.
11 G input Gate 2 NAND input G. High-impedance CMOS input protected by an internal ESD network.
12 H input Gate 2 NAND input H. High-impedance CMOS input protected by an internal ESD network.
13 K output Gate 2 NAND output. K = NOT(E AND F AND G AND H). CMOS output rail-to-rail; sinks/sources ~1 mA at VDD = 5 V.
14 VDD power_in Positive supply. Operating range 3 V to 18 V (recommended); absolute maximum 20 V referenced to VSS. Bypass locally with 100 nF ceramic.
