CD74HC161E

Texas Instruments · Counters, Dividers · PDIP-16

CD74HC161E from Texas Instruments, in a PDIP-16. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 MR input Active-low master reset; a low level resets all Q outputs to low asynchronously on the '161, regardless of clock or enable levels.
2 CP input Clock input; counting and parallel presetting occur on the negative-to-positive (low-to-high) clock transition.
3 P0 input Parallel data input bit 0, loaded into the counter on the clock edge when SPE is low, subject to the SPE setup and hold requirements.
4 P1 input Parallel data input bit 1, loaded into the counter on the clock edge when SPE is low, subject to the SPE setup and hold requirements.
5 P2 input Parallel data input bit 2, loaded into the counter on the clock edge when SPE is low, subject to the SPE setup and hold requirements.
6 P3 input Parallel data input bit 3, loaded into the counter on the clock edge when SPE is low, subject to the SPE setup and hold requirements.
7 PE input Count enable (parallel enable); both PE and TE must be high for the counter to count.
8 GND power_in Ground reference pin for the device.
9 SPE input Synchronous parallel enable; a low level disables counting and allows data at P0 to P3 to be loaded on the clock edge, provided SPE setup and hold times are met.
10 TE input Count enable (terminal count enable); gated with the Q outputs so that TC goes high for one clock period at maximum count when TE is high, used for cascading.
11 Q3 output Counter output bit 3 (most significant bit).
12 Q2 output Counter output bit 2.
13 Q1 output Counter output bit 1.
14 Q0 output Counter output bit 0 (least significant bit).
15 TC output Terminal count output; goes high for one clock period when TE is high and the counter is at terminal count (HHHH), enabling the next cascaded stage.
16 VCC power_in Positive supply; HC types operate from 2 V to 6 V.
