SN74HC163PWT

Counter Dividers Overview

The SN74HC163PWT is a synchronous 4-bit binary counter manufactured by Texas Instruments. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2 V to 6 V and features a positive-edge triggered clock input. The device includes a synchronous clear function, allowing the counter to be reset without affecting the clock signal. It is housed in a 16-TSSOP package and supports surface-mount installation.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Synchronous four-bit binary counting with parallel data inputs
• Positive-edge triggered clocking mechanism
• Synchronous active-low clear control for immediate reset

Counter Dividers Applications

• Digital frequency division circuits
• Event counting systems
• Timing sequence generation logic

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix PWT against official Texas Instruments documentation to confirm the tape-and-reel packaging configuration. Ensure the component meets RoHS compliance requirements for your assembly process. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributor catalogs to validate authenticity and current production status before procurement.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component when a synchronous 4-bit counter with parallel load capability is required. It is suitable for designs needing precise timing synchronization via a positive-edge clock. Consider the 16-TSSOP package constraints and the 2 V to 6 V operating voltage range during circuit design.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This part belongs to the SN74HC163 series of high-speed CMOS logic devices. It functions as a synchronous 4-bit binary counter with parallel inputs. The series is designed for applications requiring reliable digital counting operations with low power consumption and wide operating voltage flexibility.

Counter Dividers Replacement Considerations

SN74HC163PWR: Same logical function with different reel packaging. SN74HC163DR: SOIC package variant with identical electrical characteristics.
