The CD4042BDE4 is a 14-Lead Plastic Dual In-Line Package (PDIP), 4-stage ripple-through flip flop which is categorized under Logic - Latches.

It is most suitable for all types of synchronous dynamic circuitry such as count-down systems, pulse generation, frequency dividers and so on. This chip is also known as a 4-bit handle-clear flip flop in which each handle-clear flip flop has two outputs that are identified as Q and Q⁻¹ respectively and they can be used to hold data.

At the center of this Flip-flop is the flip-flop control which contains the logic circuit that controls the state of the flip-flop in response to control signals (CLK and CLR). The Control Signal (CLK) is used to trigger the operation of the flip-flop, while the Control Signal (CLR) is used to reset the flip-flop to its original state.

The input and output characteristics of the CD4042BDE4 are determined by the integrated circuitry in the device. The main difference between this chip and other Logic-Latches lies in the external inputs which control the active and reset states of the flip flop. For this chip, the external inputs are provided by two control signals (CLK and CLR).

The working principle of the CD4042BDE4 is fairly straightforward and can be broken down into four stages. In the first stage, the clock signal is used to enable the flip flop so that its output can be changed. It is achieved by configuring the logic circuit of the flip flop such that the input pulse is propagated through the latch and then to the output when the clock signal is low. The second stage occurs when the clock signal is high and the output is stable, regardless of the inputs.

In the third stage, the data is latched when the clock signal changes from low to high. This means that the output of the flip flop is unaffected by the input until the clock signal goes high. And finally, the fourth stage occurs when the unfreeze signal is applied. This causes the flip flop to reset, allowing the output to revert back to the initial state, thus clearing the data latched in the third stage.

The CD4042BDE4 can be employed in a variety of applications such as restoring data, counting and state machines. For example, the chip can be used to distinguish between two abnormal temperatures, say ‘cold’ and ‘hot’, by making use of the flip flop’s two outputs. On the other hand, it can also be used in motor control applications, where the output of the flip flop is connected to the stepper motor to control its direction.

To conclude, the CD4042BDE4 is a powerful logical circuit and can be used in a variety of applications, thus making it ideal for synchronous dynamic circuitries. Its working principle is fairly straightforward and takes into account four stages, with the external inputs being controlled by two control signals.
