What are the key features of CD74HC193M?

  • Presettable synchronous 4-bit up/down counter with separate up-clock and down-clock inputs enabling flexible count sequences without external glue logic
  • Asynchronous parallel load and asynchronous clear allow instant count initialization or reset within a single clock cycle, simplifying state machine design
  • Cascadable terminal-count (TCO-UP and TCO-DOWN) outputs enable direct multi-stage ripple-carry chaining to build 8-bit, 12-bit, or wider counters
  • HC-family CMOS operates from 2 V to 6 V at up to 17 MHz, providing low power consumption for battery and logic-level flexible designs

What is CD74HC193M used for?

The CD74HC193M is used in frequency dividers, event counters, and timer circuits in embedded systems where a presettable 4-bit count range and bidirectional capability enable both up-counting and down-counting sequences from a programmable initial value without microcontroller overhead. Engineers cascade multiple CD74HC193M devices to build 8-bit or wider counters for address generation in memory-mapped parallel interfaces and waveform synthesis hardware. The 16-pin SOIC package and HC-family 2 V to 6 V supply range also make it suitable for portable instrumentation and industrial control logic where board space and power budget are constrained.

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can the CD74HC193M count, and does clock frequency change with supply voltage?

The CD74HC193M supports a maximum clock frequency of 17 MHz at a 4.5 V supply with a 50 pF load. At 2 V the maximum frequency drops to approximately 3 MHz, and at 6 V it can reach around 21 MHz. Designers running the device in 3.3 V systems should derate the clock to roughly 10 MHz to maintain reliable operation with standard CMOS signal integrity margins.

How are two CD74HC193M devices cascaded to form an 8-bit up/down counter?

To cascade two CD74HC193M units into an 8-bit counter, connect the TCO-UP output of the lower 4-bit stage to the CPU (up-clock) input of the upper stage, and connect TCO-DOWN of the lower stage to the CPD (down-clock) input of the upper stage. The carry and borrow pulses propagate automatically, and the parallel load inputs of both stages can be tied together for simultaneous 8-bit preset within one clock cycle.

What is the difference between the CD74HC193M asynchronous clear and the parallel load feature?

The asynchronous clear (MR, active HIGH) immediately forces all 4 counter outputs to 0 regardless of the clock, making it useful for power-on reset circuits that must guarantee a known state. The parallel load (PL, active LOW) is also asynchronous and loads the 4 data inputs (P0–P3) directly into the count register on the falling edge of PL, enabling a non-zero preset value such as starting a countdown from 12 in a divide-by-12 frequency divider.

For a BCD decade counter application, can the CD74HC193M be configured to count only 0 through 9?

Yes. By decoding the state Q3·Q1 (count value 10) with a 2-input AND gate and feeding the output to the parallel load input (PL) while setting the data inputs to 0000, the CD74HC193M resets to 0 on reaching 10, creating a modulo-10 (BCD) count sequence. This technique uses one AND gate and avoids a dedicated BCD counter IC, reducing the solution to 2 standard logic packages in a 2 V to 6 V CMOS system.
