Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'MT' indicates tape-and-reel packaging when sourcing. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation or authorized distributors. Ensure the operating environment remains within the specified -55°C to +125°C temperature range to maintain performance integrity. Cross-reference datasheet revisions for any pinout or electrical characteristic updates prior to final implementation.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring synchronous operation with defined reset and preset behaviors. The wide voltage range accommodates various digital logic levels. Consider the SOIC-16 package constraints for PCB layout. Verify that the maximum clock frequency requirements align with the HC series specifications under the intended load conditions and supply voltage.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This part belongs to the Texas Instruments CD74HC163 family of synchronous binary counters. It shares functional similarities with other 74HC163 variants but differs in packaging and manufacturing lot specifics. The device is designed for applications demanding reliable synchronous counting with minimal propagation delay in high-speed digital environments.

Counter Dividers Replacement Considerations

CD74HC163M (Tube) offers identical functionality in a different package format. SN74HC163DR provides equivalent performance in a SOIC-8 alternative if pin compatibility allows redesign.
