CD4022 is TTL logic Octal Counter IC. It has eight output pins which increments from zero to eight for every input clock pulse. The maximum clock frequency is 5Mhz and is commonly used in digital counters, LED drivers, and other digital arithmetic applications.
Pin Configuration
| Pin Number | Pin Name | Description |
| 1 to 6 and 7,10,11 | Output pins 0 to 7 | These are the 8 output pins on which the counting occurs, they are not in order hence verify pin diagram above |
| 8 | Vss or Ground | Connected to the Ground of the circuit |
| 12 | Carry Out (CO) | This pin goes high after the IC counts from 1 to 10. This is used as a carry while counting. |
| 13 | Clock Enable (EN) | This is an input that when made high will hold the count at the current state |
| 14 | Clock | The counting happens when this clock pulse goes high, this pin is normally connected to a 555 timer or other uC to produce a pulse |
| 15 | Resets | As the name suggests this pin resets the count back to 1 |
| 16 | Vdd / Vcc | Connects to the supply voltage typically +5V |

Where to use CD4022 IC
The IC CD4022 is used for counting applications, it has the capability to turn on 8 outputs sequentially in a pre-defined time and reset the count or hold it when required. It also has the capability to indicate the status of counting using a Carry pin. This is commonly used for LED chasers and other logical output projects, where you need to perform arithmetic operations. It is also called a Divide by 8 Counter since the carry pin produces one clock pulse for every 8 pulses on the clock pin. So if you are looking for a sequential decoded counting IC that can count up to 8 then this IC will be your right choice.
Applications
- Used in LED matrix, LED chaser, and other LED projects
- Binary counter or Binary decoder
- Can be used for dividing by N counting
- remote metering, automotive, medical electronic
- Instrumentation and Alarm systems
