[ /Title (CD74 HC93, CD74 HCT93 ) /Subject (High Speed CMOS Logic 4-Bit Binary Ripple Counte r) CD74HC93, CD74HCT93 Data sheet acquired from Harris Semiconductor SCHS138C High-Speed CMOS Logic 4-Bit Binary Ripple Counter August 1997 - Revised September 2003 Features Description • Can Be Configured to Divide By 2, 8, and 16 The CD74HC93 and CD74HCT93 are high-speed silicon-gate CMOS devices and are pin-compatible with low power Schottky TTL (LSTTL). These 4-bit binary ripple counters consist of four master-slave flip-flops internally connected to provide a divide-by-two section and a divide- by-eight section. Each section has a separate clock input (CP0 and CP1) to initiate state changes of the counter on the HIGH to LOW clock transition. State changes of the Qn outputs do not occur simultaneously because of internal ripple delays. Therefore, decoded output signals are subject to decoding spikes and should not be used for clocks or strobes. • Asynchronous Master Reset • Fanout (Over Temperature Range) - Standard Outputs . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10 LSTTL Loads - Bus Driver Outputs . . . . . . . . . . . . . 15 LSTTL Loads • Wide Operating Temperature Range . . . -55oC to 125oC • Balanced Propagation Delay and Transition Times • Significant Power Reduction Compared to LSTTL Logic ICs A gated AND asynchronous master reset (MR1 and MR2 is provided which overrides both clocks and resets (clears) all flip-flops. • HC Types - 2V to 6V Operation - High Noise Immunity: NIL = 30%, NIH = 30% of VCC at VCC = 5V Because the output from the divide by two section is not internally connected to the succeeding stages, the device may be operated in various counting modes. • HCT Types - 4.5V to 5.5V Operation - Direct LSTTL Input Logic Compatibility, VIL= 0.8V (Max), VIH = 2V (Min) - CMOS Input Compatibility, Il ≤ 1µA at VOL, VOH In a 4-bit ripple counter the output Q0 must be connected externally to input CP1. The input count pulses are applied to clock input CP0. Simultaneous frequency divisions of 2, 4, 8, and 16 are performed at the Q0, Q1, Q2, and Q3 outputs as shown in the function table. As a 3-bit ripple counter the input count pulses are applied to input CP1. Pinout Simultaneous frequency divisions of 2, 4, and 8 are available at the Q1, Q2, Q3 outputs. Independent use of the first flipflop is available if the reset function coincides with the reset of the 3-bit ripple-through counter.

LIFEBUY: TI has announced that the device will be discontinued, and a lifetime-buy period is in effect. NRND: Not recommended for new designs. Device is in production to support existing customers, but TI does not recommend using this part in a new design. PREVIEW: Device has been announced but is not in production. Samples may or may not be available. OBSOLETE: TI has discontinued the production of the device. (2) Eco Plan - The planned eco-friendly classification: Pb-Free (RoHS), Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt), or Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) - please check http://www.ti.com/productcontent for the latest availability information and additional product content details. TBD: The Pb-Free/Green conversion plan has not been defined. Pb-Free (RoHS): TI's terms "Lead-Free" or "Pb-Free" mean semiconductor products that are compatible with the current RoHS requirements for all 6 substances, including the requirement that lead not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered at high temperatures, TI Pb-Free products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes. Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt): This component has a RoHS exemption for either 1) lead-based flip-chip solder bumps used between the die and package, or 2) lead-based die adhesive used between the die and leadframe. The component is otherwise considered Pb-Free (RoHS compatible) as defined above. Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br) and Antimony (Sb) based flame retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous material) (3) MSL, Peak Temp. -- The Moisture Sensitivity Level rating according to the JEDEC industry standard classifications, and peak solder temperature.
