SN74ALS163BDBR

Counter Dividers Overview

The SN74ALS163BDBR is a synchronous 4-bit binary counter manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within the ALS logic series and features an up-counting sequence with a synchronous clear function. The device is housed in a 16-pin SOIC surface-mount package. It requires a supply voltage between 4.5 V and 5.5 V and functions reliably across an operating temperature range of 0°C to +70°C.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Synchronous four-bit binary counting architecture
• Integrated synchronous clear control mechanism
• Surface-mount packaging for automated assembly

Counter Dividers Applications

• Digital timing circuits
• Frequency division networks
• Event counting systems

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'BDBR' against official manufacturer documentation to confirm the SOIC-16 package and reel packaging configuration. Ensure compatibility with standard 5V logic levels and validate thermal requirements for the intended operating environment before finalizing procurement specifications.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component when a synchronous 4-bit binary counter with a clear function is required in a surface-mount design. The ALS series offers improved speed over standard LS counterparts while maintaining compatible pinouts. Verify that the system voltage remains within the specified 4.5V to 5.5V range for reliable operation.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This part belongs to the Texas Instruments SN74ALS163 family of synchronous counters. It shares functional similarities with other 4-bit binary counters but distinguishes itself through the ALS technology, which provides faster switching speeds. The 'BDBR' designation indicates the specific physical package and tape-and-reel delivery format.

Counter Dividers Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the SN74ALS163BD and SN74ALS163N, provided the package type matches the board layout. Verify electrical characteristics and pin configurations to ensure direct interchangeability without circuit modification.
