What the CP82C54-10Z Does in the Assembly
The CP82C54-10Z is a programmable timer IC from Renesas, designed to generate precise timing intervals or frequency outputs under software control. It operates at a maximum clock frequency of 10 MHz, making it suitable for event counting, pulse-width modulation, and baud-rate generation in industrial control and embedded systems. Housed in a 24-DIP through-hole package (0.600-inch body width), it requires a 5V nominal supply rail (4.5V to 5.5V range) and draws 10 mA typical supply current.
ROHS3 compliance confirms it meets current environmental directives. For BOM planning, this part remains orderable through franchised distribution without a mandatory second-source search.
Package and Mounting – Through-Hole Only
The 24-DIP (0.600-inch row spacing) package is a through-hole footprint that mates with standard 0.100-inch pitch sockets or solders directly into plated through-holes. No SMT reflow profile is needed — wave solder or hand-solder only. The 15.24 mm body width requires a DIP-24 socket or PCB layout with 0.600-inch row spacing.
