Unfortunely Dave the MC4016P chip is not the same as the CD4016P.

It was an early Motorola 'Programmable Modulo-N Counter' chip which was unique to Motorola from around the early 1970's. Why they chose that numbering system for their Emiiter-Coupled-Logic ECL I'm unsure but I'm fairly certain it pre-dates the later generic MOS 4000 series of gates etc.

We've all been caught out on this before, certainly 30 years back.

Sometimes I'm a mountain of useless information. Can remember 30 years ago and lost in the last 30 minutes
