DESCRIPTION
The 74LVC163 is a high-performance, low-power, low-voltage,
Si-gate CMOS device and superior to most advanced CMOS
compatible TTL families.
The 74LVC163 is a synchronous presettable binary counter which
features an internal look–head carry and can be used for high-speed
counting. Synchronous operation is provided by having all flip-flops
clocked simultaneously on the positive-going edge of the clock (CP).
The outputs (Q
LOW level. A LOW level at the parallel enable input (PE) disables
the counting action and causes the data at the data inputs
(D
to D3) to be loaded into the counter on the positive–going edge
0
of the clock (provided that the set-up and hold time requirements for
PE are met). Preset takes place regardless of the levels at count
enable inputs (CEP and CET). A low level at the master reset input
(MR) sets all four outputs of the flip-flops (Q
after the next positive-going transition on the clock (CP) input
(provided that the set-up and hold time requirements for PE are
met).
This action occurs regardless of the levels at CP, PE
inputs This synchronous reset feature enables the designer to
modify the maximum count with only one external NAND gate.
The look–ahead carry simplifies serial cascading of the counters.
Both count enable inputs (CEP and CET) must be HIGH to count.
The CET input is fed forward to enable the terminal count output
(TC). The TC output thus enabled will produce a HIGH output pulse
of a duration approximately equal to a HIGH level output of Q
pulse can be used to enable the next cascaded stage. The
maximum clock frequency for the cascaded counters is determined
by the CP to TC propagation delay and CEP to CP set–up time,
according to the following formula:
