7493 Binary Counter 4-Bit 5V 9mA IC DIP-14

7493 Binary Counter 4-Bit 5V 9mA IC DIP-14

The 7493 Binary Counter is a TTL logic integrated circuit designed for binary counting and frequency division applications. It consists of a divide-by-2 section and a divide-by-8 section, which can be connected together to create a 4-bit binary counter with a counting sequence from 0 to 15. The outputs represent the binary count, making the IC suitable for digital systems that require pulse counting or binary data generation.
The IC features separate clock inputs for its counter sections and reset inputs for clearing the count. When configured as a complete 4-bit counter, it can be used in digital clocks, frequency dividers, event counters, and sequential logic circuits. Its 14-pin DIP package supports through-hole PCB mounting and makes it convenient for prototyping, educational experiments, and general-purpose digital electronics.

Features:

• The 7493 IC is part of the 7400 series of TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) devices.
• The 7493 4-bit binary counter consisting of four flip-flops IC (DIP-14).
• Digital IC designed to count in binary and is typically used in various timing and counting applications.
• The IC operates on a clock signal, incrementing the count each time the clock transitions.
• It has the ability to count from 0 to 15 in binary (0000 to 1111) and then rolls over to 0, making it suitable for binary counting tasks in digital electronics.
• Can be configured for smaller modulus counts (e.g., divide-by-2, divide-by-8 counters).
• It includes inputs to reset the counter to zero.
• Compatible with other TTL devices, enabling integration into digital circuits.
• Typical for TTL ICs, with propagation delays in the nanosecond range.
• Standard DIP-14 package: Easy for prototyping and integration into breadboards or PCBs.
