The 74LVC161PW,118 is a 4-bit synchronous binary counter and a 74LVC161PW,118, up-down counter integrated circuit (IC) component. It is manufactured by Nexperia, a leading supplier of discrete, logic, and analog semiconductors.
Key features of the 74LVC161PW,118 include:
1. Counter Functionality: The IC component acts as a synchronous binary counter or an up-down counter. It can count up or down depending on the control input.
2. 4-Bit Width: It consists of four flip-flops, providing a 4-bit counter width. Each flip-flop can store a binary value of 0 or 1.
3. Synchronous Operation: The counter operates synchronously, meaning the count is updated simultaneously with an input clock signal. This ensures accurate and synchronized counting.
4. Asynchronous Reset: The component supports an asynchronous reset pin that allows the counter to be reset to a predetermined value independently of the clock signal.
5. Enable Input: There is an enable input pin that, when asserted, allows the IC to count. When disabled, the IC holds its current count, preventing further increment or decrement.
6. Cascading Capability: Multiple 74LVC161PW,118 ICs can be cascaded together to increase the counting width. This feature enables the user to build larger counters by connecting multiple ICs
