SN74LS92NS

Counter Dividers Overview

The SN74LS92NS is a divide-by-12 counter integrated circuit manufactured by Texas Instruments. It belongs to the 74LS series of logic devices and utilizes a 14-pin Small Outline (SO) surface-mount package. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V and supports a maximum clock frequency of 30MHz. Designed for standard TTL applications, it provides a single divide-by-12 counting function suitable for digital timing and sequencing requirements.

Counter Dividers Feature Summary

• Implements a dedicated divide-by-12 frequency division function
• Utilizes Low-power Schottky (LS) technology for optimized power consumption
• Features a compact 14-pin SOIC surface-mount package design

Counter Dividers Applications

• Digital frequency division circuits
• Timing sequence generation systems
• Clock signal processing modules

Counter Dividers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer source and lot code upon receipt, as components may be supplied by various authorized distributors or secondary market vendors. Confirm that the physical marking matches the SN74LS92NS designation exactly. Ensure the package type corresponds to the 14-pin SOIC format. Check for any visible damage to pins or the package body before integration into the final assembly.

Counter Dividers Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed divide-by-12 ratio is required in a surface-mount design. It serves as a functional alternative to other decade or binary counters if the specific modulus is needed. Consider the LS series speed and power characteristics relative to system requirements. Verify compatibility with existing 5V logic levels and ensure the PCB footprint accommodates the SOIC-14 dimensions.

Counter Dividers Part Context

This part is a member of the widely used 74xx logic family, specifically the LS variant known for balanced performance. It functions alongside other counters like the SN74LS90N or decoders such as the SN74LS42N in complex digital systems. While distinct from flip-flops like the SN74LS374N, it complements them in state machine implementations requiring specific count sequences.
