The CD4048BM from Texas Instruments is a multifunction expandable logic gate IC belonging to the 4000B series, designed for versatile digital logic applications. Packaged in a 16-SOIC tube, this surface-mount device operates across a wide voltage range (3V to 18V), making it suitable for both low-power and industrial-level designs. With 8 inputs and a single circuit, it supports configurable logic functions (AND, OR, NAND, NOR, etc.), offering flexibility in system design. The IC is ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and rated for MSL 1 (unlimited shelf life), ensuring reliability in harsh environments.
The CD4048BM stands out for its versatility, wide voltage range, and high drive capability, making it a cost-effective solution for complex logic designs. Its expandable functionality reduces component count, while industrial-grade reliability ensures longevity. Though marked for last-time buy, it remains a pragmatic choice for legacy systems or designs requiring configurable logic with minimal footprint. Engineers should consider this IC for flexible, low-power, and noise-immune applications where standard gates fall short.
