Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | CLR | input | Active-low synchronous clear: a low level sets all four flip-flop outputs low after the next low-to-high CLK transition, regardless of the enable inputs. |
| 2 | CLK | input | Buffered clock input; the four flip-flops trigger on the rising (positive-going) edge of CLK. |
| 3 | A | input | Parallel preset data input (bit A); when LOAD is low, the outputs take the preset data after the next clock pulse. Unused inputs must be held at VCC or GND. |
| 4 | B | input | Parallel preset data input (bit B); when LOAD is low, the outputs take the preset data after the next clock pulse. Unused inputs must be held at VCC or GND. |
| 5 | C | input | Parallel preset data input (bit C); when LOAD is low, the outputs take the preset data after the next clock pulse. Unused inputs must be held at VCC or GND. |
| 6 | D | input | Parallel preset data input (bit D); when LOAD is low, the outputs take the preset data after the next clock pulse. Unused inputs must be held at VCC or GND. |
| 7 | ENP | input | Count-enable input; both ENP and ENT must be high for the counter to count, and transitions at ENP are allowed regardless of the CLK level. |
| 8 | GND | power_in | Ground reference; the absolute maximum continuous current through VCC or GND is ±50 mA. |
| 9 | LOAD | input | Active-low synchronous preset input; a low level disables the counter and loads the A-D data on the next clock pulse regardless of the enable inputs. |
| 10 | ENT | input | Count-enable input that also feeds forward to enable RCO; both ENP and ENT must be high to count. |
| 11 | QD | output | Counter output bit D (most significant bit of the 4-bit binary count); outputs can drive up to 10 LSTTL loads. |
| 12 | QC | output | Counter output bit C; outputs can drive up to 10 LSTTL loads. |
| 13 | QB | output | Counter output bit B; outputs can drive up to 10 LSTTL loads. |
| 14 | QA | output | Counter output bit A (least significant bit); outputs can drive up to 10 LSTTL loads. |
| 15 | RCO | output | Ripple-carry output that produces a high-level pulse while the count is maximum (9 or 15 with QA high) when ENT is high, for cascading stages. |
| 16 | VCC | power_in | Supply voltage: recommended operating range 2 V to 6 V (5 V nominal), absolute maximum −0.5 V to 7 V. |
