QS74FCT163DTQ

Counter Dividers Overview

The QS74FCT163DTQ is a binary counter integrated circuit manufactured by Quality Semiconductor. It functions as a 4-bit positive-edge triggered counter element with asynchronous reset capability and up-counting direction. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4.75V to 5.25V and supports surface mount installation in a 20-SSOP package. It is designed for industrial temperature ranges spanning from -40°C to 85°C.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Asynchronous reset functionality for immediate counter clearing
• Positive-edge triggering mechanism for clock synchronization
• Up-counting direction logic for sequential data processing

Counter Dividers Applications

• Digital counting circuits requiring precise event tracking
• Frequency division applications in signal processing systems
• Timing control modules in industrial automation equipment

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation carefully, as this component is associated with Quality Semiconductor but may appear under IDT branding in certain distribution channels. Confirm the specific suffix DTQ corresponds to the required 20-SSOP package variant. Ensure compatibility with existing board layouts before procurement, as obsolete status may affect long-term availability.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component when a dedicated 4-bit binary counter with asynchronous reset is required. It is suitable for designs needing positive-edge triggering and up-counting logic. Consider the 20-SSOP package constraints and industrial temperature range requirements during integration planning.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This part belongs to the FCT logic family, which provides high-speed CMOS performance. It serves as a specialized counter element distinct from general-purpose flip-flops or decoders. The device complements other FCT series components in complex digital system architectures.
