Each counter advances on the falling edge of its clock and presents the count on four outputs (QA-QD, QA is the LSB), with an active-high clear to reset to zero. Feed one counter's QD into the other's clock and they cascade into an 8-bit counter (0-255); chain more packages for wider counts. It is the compact way to divide a clock, generate addresses, or time events. Runs 2-6 V. The pinout matches the 74LS393; this page ships the KiCad 74LS393 symbol, which is pin-identical.++## Pinout++| Pin | Name | Type | Function |+|---|---|---|---|+| 1 | 1CLK | input | Counter 1 clock input. Counter 1 advances on the high-to-low (falling-edge) transition of this input. CMOS-level input, 2 V to 6 V logic swing; typical clock frequency 31 MHz at VCC=4.5 V. |+| 2 | 1CLR | input | Counter 1 asynchronous clear input, active high. When held high, Q1A-Q1D are forced low regardless of 1CLK. Minimum high pulse width ~16 ns at VCC=4.5 V. |+| 3 | 1QA | output | Counter 1 stage A (LSB) output. Toggles on each falling edge of 1CLK; divides input clock by 2. Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at VCC=5 V. |+| 4 | 1QB | output | Counter 1 stage B output. Toggles on each falling edge of 1QA; divides 1CLK by 4. Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at VCC=5 V. |+| 5 | 1QC | output | Counter 1 stage C output. Toggles on each falling edge of 1QB; divides 1CLK by 8. Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at VCC=5 V. |+| 6 | 1QD | output | Counter 1 stage D (MSB) output. Toggles on each falling edge of 1QC; divides 1CLK by 16. Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at VCC=5 V. |+| 7 | GND | power_in | Ground reference (0 V). Return path for VCC current. |+| 8 | 2QD | output | Counter 2 stage D (MSB) output. Toggles on each falling edge of 2QC; divides 2CLK by 16. Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at VCC=5 V. |+| 9 | 2QC | output | Counter 2 stage C output. Toggles on each falling edge of 2QB; divides 2CLK by 8. Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at VCC=5 V. |+| 10 | 2QB | output | Counter 2 stage B output. Toggles on each falling edge of 2QA; divides 2CLK by 4. Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at VCC=5 V. |+| 11 | 2QA | output | Counter 2 stage A (LSB) output. Toggles on each falling edge of 2CLK; divides input clock by 2. Push-pull CMOS output, ±4 mA drive at VCC=5 V. |+| 12 | 2CLR | input | Counter 2 asynchronous clear input, active high. When held high, Q2A-Q2D are forced low regardless of 2CLK. Minimum high pulse width ~16 ns at VCC=4.5 V. |+| 13 | 2CLK | input | Counter 2 clock input. Counter 2 advances on the high-to-low (falling-edge) transition of this input. CMOS-level input, 2 V to 6 V logic swing. |+| 14 | VCC | power_in | Positive supply. Recommended 2 V to 6 V (5 V nominal). Bypass to GND with 0.1 µF (and optional 1 µF) placed close to the pin. |++## Key specifications++| Parameter | Value |+|---|---|+| Type | Dual 4-bit binary counter |+| Counters | 2 independent (4-bit each) |+| Clock | negative-edge triggered |+| Reset | active-high clear per counter |+| Cascade | QD to next CLK (8-bit and beyond) |+| Logic family | HC (high-speed CMOS) |+| Supply voltage | 2-6 V |+| Package | SOIC-14 |++## Ordering variants++- `SN74HC393D (SOIC-14, tube)`+- `SN74HC393DR (SOIC-14, tape & reel)`++## CAD (KiCad official)++- Symbol: `74xx:74LS393 (pin-compatible with 74HC393)`+- Footprint: `Package_SO:SOIC-14_3.9x8.7mm_P1.27mm`+- 3D model: SOIC-14 (KiCad packages3D)++## Provenance++Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:++- **Datasheet:** [Texas Instruments datasheet](https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/sn74hc393.pdf) (38 pp, sha256 `aa77c46be80d7142`, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: manufacturer)+- **Extractor:** `ds2sf` (Claude).
