description
The outputs of the four flip-flops are triggered on
a low-to-high-level transition of the clock (CLK)
input if the count-enable (CTEN) input is low. A
high at CTEN inhibits counting. The direction of
the count is determined by the level of the
down/up (D/U) input. When D/U is low, the counter
counts up, and when D/U is high, it counts down.

The ’HC191 are 4-bit synchronous, reversible,
up/down binary counters. Synchronous counting
operation is provided by having all flip-flops
clocked simultaneously so that the outputs
change coincident with each other when
instructed by the steering logic. This mode of
operation eliminates the output counting spikes
normally associated with asynchronous (rippleclock) counters.

NC – No internal connection
These counters feature a fully independent clock circuit. Change at the control (CTEN and D/U) inputs that
modifies the operating mode have no effect on the contents of the counter until clocking occurs. The function
of the counter is dictated solely by the condition meeting the stable setup and hold times.
These counters are fully programmable; that is, each of the outputs can be preset to either level by placing a
low on the load (LOAD) input and entering the desired data at the data inputs. The output changes to agree with
the data inputs independently of the level of CLK. This feature allows the counters to be used as modulo-N
dividers by simply modifying the count length with the preset inputs.
Two outputs are available to perform the cascading function: ripple clock (RCO) and maximum/minimum
(MAX/MIN) count. MAX/MIN produces a high-level output pulse with a duration approximately equal to one
complete cycle of the clock while the count is zero (all outputs low) counting down, or maximum (9 or 15)
counting up. RCO produces a low-level output pulse under those same conditions, but only while CLK is low.
The counters can be easily cascaded by feeding RCO to CTEN of the succeeding counter if parallel clocking
is used, or to CLK if parallel enabling is used. MAX/MIN can be used to accomplish look ahead for high-speed
operation.
The SN54HC191 is characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of –55°C to 125°C. The
SN74HC191 is characterized for operation from –40°C to 85°C.

† Stresses beyond those listed under “absolute maximum ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under “recommended operating conditions” is not
implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
NOTES: 1. The input and output voltage ratings may be exceeded if the input and output current ratings are observed.
2. The package thermal impedance is calculated in accordance with JESD 51, except for through-hole packages, which use a trace
length of zero.

‡ If this device is used in the threshold region (from VILmax = 0.5 V to VIHmin = 1.5 V), there is a potential to go into the wrong state from induced
grounding, causing double clocking. Operating with the inputs at tt = 1000 ns and VCC = 2 V does not damage the device; however, functionally,
the CLK inputs are not ensured while in the shift, count, or toggle operating modes.
