DM74LS393 Dual 4-Bit Binary Counter
DM74LS393
Dual 4-Bit Binary Counter
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
DM74LS393 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 DM74LS393 has parallel output s fro m ea c h c ount e r st ag e so th a t an y subm ul t ip l e
of the input count frequency is available for system -timing
signals.
Features
■ Dual version of the popular DM74LS93
■ DM74LS393 dual 4-bit binary counter with individual
clocks
■ Direct clear for each 4-bit counter
■ Dual 4-bit versions can significantly improve system
densities by reducing counter package count by 50%
■ Typical maximum count frequency 35 MHz
■ Buffered outputs reduce possibility of collector commu-
tation
Ordering Code:
Devices also availab le in Tape and Reel. Specify by appending th e s uffix let t er “X” to the ordering code.
