SN54S163J

Counter Dividers Overview

The SN54S163J is a synchronous 4-bit binary counter manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within a military-grade temperature range of -55°C to 125°C and utilizes a 16-pin ceramic dual in-line package (CDIP). The device functions as an up-counter with synchronous preset and reset capabilities, designed for high-speed digital logic applications requiring reliable performance under extreme environmental conditions.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Synchronous four-bit binary counting operation
• Military-grade wide temperature operational capability
• Robust ceramic dual in-line packaging

Counter Dividers Applications

• High-reliability military digital systems
• Aerospace control logic circuits
• Extreme environment data processing units

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against current manufacturer documentation to confirm package type and material specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead finish details directly with the supplier, as these attributes vary by production lot and specific part marking requirements.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component when military-grade reliability and extended temperature tolerance are mandatory. Ensure the design accommodates the specific power supply requirements and signal levels associated with the Schottky TTL family. Verify that the synchronous control inputs align with the system timing architecture.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This device belongs to the SN54S163 series of synchronous 4-bit counters. It shares functional characteristics with other members of the S-series logic family but is distinguished by its military qualification and ceramic packaging. It serves as a specialized alternative to commercial variants for demanding operational environments.

Counter Dividers Replacement Considerations

SN74S163N is a commercially rated equivalent available in plastic DIP packaging. Substitution requires verification of temperature range compatibility and voltage level alignment between the military and commercial logic families.
