The IC component 74LV393D,118 is a dual 4-bit binary counter manufactured by Nexperia. It is designed to be used in a wide range of applications such as frequency division, time delay generation, and event sequencing.
Key Features:
1. Dual 4-bit Counter: The IC contains two independent 4-bit binary counters, denoted as A and B. This allows users to perform multiple counting operations simultaneously.
2. Asynchronous Reset: A unique feature of this IC is the provision of an asynchronous reset pin for both counters. This allows you to reset the counters to their initial state at any time, independent of clock signals.
3. Binary or BCD Counting: The counter supports both binary and binary-coded decimal (BCD) counting modes. With the appropriate configuration, it can count in either format, providing flexibility for different applications.
4. Synchronous Counting: The 74LV393D,118 performs synchronous counting, meaning it operates based on an external clock signal. This clock signal controls the timing of the counting operation and synchronizes both the A and B counters.
5. Ripple Clock Output: The IC features a ripple clock output (RCO) pin that provides a cascaded signal output from the B counter. This can be used to connect multiple ICs in a cascaded fashion, allowing for higher bit count operation
