These circuits are synchronous, edge-sensitive, fully-programmable 4-bit counters. The counters feature both conventional totem-pole and TRI-STATE outputs; such that
when the outputs are in the high impedance mode, they can
be used to enter data from the bus lines. In addition, the
clear input operates completely independent of all other inputs. During the programming operation, data is loaded into
the flip-flops on the positive-going edge of the clock pulse.
To facilitate cascading of these counters, the MAX COUNT
output can be tied directly into the count enable input of the
next counter.

Note:
The ‘‘Absolute Maximum Ratings’’ are those values
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.
