SN54196J

Counter Dividers Overview

The SN54196J is a high-speed presettable decade or binary counter/latch manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within a frequency range of 50 MHz, 30 MHz, and 100 MHz depending on the specific configuration. The device is housed in a 14-pin ceramic dual in-line package (CDIP). It supports an operating temperature range from -55°C to 125°C, ensuring reliability in harsh environments typical of military and aerospace applications.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Supports both decade and binary counting modes for flexible logic design
• Capable of high-speed operation with specified frequencies up to 100 MHz
• Integrated latch functionality allows data storage during counting operations

Counter Dividers Applications

• High-speed digital timing circuits
• Military-grade frequency division systems
• Aerospace control logic counters

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix designation when ordering, as variations such as SN54196J.A may exist. Confirm that the CDIP package matches your board layout requirements. Ensure the supplier provides official Texas Instruments documentation to guarantee authenticity and compliance with military specifications.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component when a single IC must handle both counting and latching functions in high-speed applications. Consider the CDIP package if hermetic sealing is required for environmental protection. Evaluate the specific frequency requirement against the 50/30/100 MHz capabilities to ensure adequate performance margins.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This part belongs to the SN54xxx series, which denotes military-grade performance standards. Unlike commercial SN74xxx counterparts, the SN54xxx series offers extended temperature ranges and stricter manufacturing controls. The SN54196 specifically addresses needs for presettable counters where binary or decimal output is selectable.

Counter Dividers Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other SN54196 variants with compatible suffixes. Verify pin compatibility before substituting. Generic TTL counters may not match the speed or hermetic packaging requirements.
