CD74HC161MT

Counter Dividers Overview

The CD74HC161MT is a high-speed CMOS logic device manufactured by Texas Instruments, functioning as a 4-bit binary synchronous counter. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 6 V and supports clock frequencies up to 35 MHz. The component utilizes positive edge triggering for its synchronous operation and features an asynchronous reset input. It is housed in a 16-pin SOIC surface-mount package and is rated for an operating temperature range from -55 °C to 125 °C.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Synchronous 4-bit binary counting with positive edge triggering
• Asynchronous reset capability for immediate state clearing
• High-speed CMOS technology supporting wide voltage ranges

Counter Dividers Applications

• Digital frequency division circuits
• Sequential timing control systems
• Pulse counting applications

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'MT' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm package dimensions and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure the selected variant matches the required operating temperature range and electrical characteristics defined in the technical documentation before finalizing procurement.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component when a synchronous 4-bit binary counter with asynchronous reset is required in a surface-mount design. Consider the 2 V to 6 V supply range and 35 MHz maximum clock frequency to ensure compatibility with the system's power and timing constraints.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This part belongs to the Texas Instruments 74HC series of high-speed CMOS logic devices. It is functionally related to other 4-bit counters such as the CD74HC163, which differs primarily in its reset mechanism. The device is designed for general-purpose digital logic applications requiring reliable synchronous counting operations.
