CD4059AM96G4 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CD4059AM96G4 is a 16-bit divide-by-N counter IC manufactured by Texas Instruments, part of the 4000 series logic family. This component functions as a programmable frequency divider with asynchronous reset capability, designed for applications requiring precise frequency division in the 12 MHz range. The CD4059AM96G4 is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent parts essential for new designs and production continuity. Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical characteristics, package specifications, and functional parameters to ensure direct compatibility without circuit redesign.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the CD4059AM96G4 is determined by strict equivalence across all electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary substitute identified is the CD4059AM, which shares the identical base product number (CD4059) and maintains complete functional parity. Substitution validity is established through matching:

• Logic type and functional architecture (Divide-by-N counter)
• Bit width and element configuration (16-bit, 1 element)
• Electrical specifications (voltage range, count rate, trigger characteristics)
• Package and pinout (24-SOIC form factor)
• Environmental compliance (RoHS3, REACH status)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C)

The CD4059AM differs from the CD4059AM96G4 only in product status (active versus obsolete) and packaging format (tube versus unspecified), with no impact on functional compatibility or electrical performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The CD4059AM is the direct functional equivalent of the CD4059AM96G4 and is suitable for replacement in all applications. The primary advantage of selecting CD4059AM is its active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. Both parts maintain identical electrical performance, package specifications, and environmental compliance certifications (RoHS3, REACH unaffected). The CD4059AM is available in higher inventory quantities (3300 pcs versus 803 pcs), supporting both prototype and production-volume requirements. No circuit modifications, PCB layout changes, or firmware adjustments are required when transitioning from CD4059AM96G4 to CD4059AM.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CD4059AM be used as a direct replacement for CD4059AM96G4?
