SN74F163ANS

Counter Dividers Overview

The SN74F163ANS is a synchronous 4-bit binary counter from the Texas Instruments SN74F163A series. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V and supports an operating temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. The device utilizes a narrow SOIC-16 (SOIC-N) surface-mount package. As a logic F-series component, it performs up-counting operations with synchronous preset and clear capabilities.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Synchronous four-bit binary counting architecture
• Integrated synchronous load and reset functions
• Surface-mount installation for compact circuit design

Counter Dividers Applications

• Digital timing circuits requiring precise clock synchronization
• Frequency division networks in signal processing systems
• Control logic sequencing in industrial automation equipment

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ANS' against current manufacturer documentation to confirm package type and availability status. Confirm RoHS compliance details as required by project specifications. Ensure the selected variant matches the required thermal and electrical operating conditions for the intended application environment.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-speed F-series logic family is required alongside a surface-mount form factor. Compare against through-hole alternatives if prototyping flexibility is needed. Verify that the 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply requirement aligns with the system power rails before finalizing the design.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74F163A family of synchronous counters. It shares functional similarities with asynchronous variants like the SN74F161 but offers synchronized control signals. The F-series designation indicates faster switching speeds compared to standard LS or HC logic families, suitable for higher frequency applications.

Counter Dividers Replacement Considerations

SN74F163AD serves as a pin-compatible alternative in a different package configuration.
