CD4511BE

Texas Instruments · Digital Tube Drivers · DIP-16

CD4511BE from Texas Instruments, in a DIP-16. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 B input BCD data input bit B (weight 2). CMOS logic input, protected by internal CMOS protection network. Referenced to VSS/VDD; VIH min ~3.5 V at VDD=5 V, ~7 V at VDD=10 V, 11 V at VDD=15 V.
2 C input BCD data input bit C (weight 4). CMOS logic input latched into the internal 4-bit register when LE=0.
3 LT input Lamp Test, active low. When LT=0 all seven segment outputs (a..g) are driven high to test the display, overriding BL and BCD inputs.
4 BL input Blanking, active low. When BL=0 (and LT=1) all seven segment outputs are blanked (driven low). Used for intensity modulation, strobing, or leading-zero suppression.
5 LE/STROBE input Latch Enable / Strobe. When LE=0 the BCD input data is passed through to the decoder; when LE=1 the last BCD data is latched and the display is held. Minimum strobe pulse width 400 ns at VDD=5 V.
6 D input BCD data input bit D (weight 8, MSB). BCD input codes greater than 1001 (>9) blank the display.
7 A input BCD data input bit A (weight 1, LSB). CMOS logic input referenced to VSS/VDD.
8 VSS power_in Negative supply / ground reference. Typically connected to 0 V. Absolute maximum VDD relative to VSS is -0.5 V to +20 V.
9 e output Segment 'e' output. Active-high n-p-n bipolar current-sourcing driver capable of sourcing up to 25 mA for direct drive of common-cathode LED, incandescent, or low-voltage fluorescent segment displays.
10 d output Segment 'd' output. Active-high n-p-n bipolar current-sourcing driver, up to 25 mA source current.
11 c output Segment 'c' output. Active-high n-p-n bipolar current-sourcing driver, up to 25 mA source current.
12 b output Segment 'b' output. Active-high n-p-n bipolar current-sourcing driver, up to 25 mA source current.
13 a output Segment 'a' output. Active-high n-p-n bipolar current-sourcing driver, up to 25 mA source current.
14 g output Segment 'g' output. Active-high n-p-n bipolar current-sourcing driver, up to 25 mA source current.
15 f output Segment 'f' output. Active-high n-p-n bipolar current-sourcing driver, up to 25 mA source current.
16 VDD power_in Positive supply. Operating VDD range 3 V to 18 V (referenced to VSS). Absolute-maximum VDD is +20 V. Full-package temperature range -55 °C to +125 °C.
