DM74LS393 Dual 4-Bit Binary Counter
DM74LS393 Dual 4-Bit Binary Counter
June 1989
General Description
Each of these monolithic circuits contains eight masterslave flip-flops and additional gating to implement two individual four-bit counters in a single package. The ’LS393
comprises two independent four-bit binary counters each
having a clear and a clock input. N-bit binary counters can
be implemented with each package providing the capability
of divide-by-256. The LS393 has parallel outputs from each
counter stage so that any submultiple of the input count
freqency is available for system-timing signals.
Features
Y
Dual version of the popular ’LS93
Y
’LS393 dual 4-bit binary counter with individual clocks
Y
Direct clear for each 4-bit counter
Y
Dual 4-bit versions can significantly improve system
densities by reducing counter package count by 50%
Y
Typical maximum count frequency 35 MHz
Y
Buffered outputs reduce possibility of collector commutation

The ‘‘Absolute Maximum Ratings’’ are those values
Note:
beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. The device should not be operated at these limits. The
parametric values defined in the ‘‘Electrical Characteristics’’
table are not guaranteed at the absolute maximum ratings.
The ‘‘Recommended Operating Conditions’’ table will define
the conditions for actual device operation.
