CD74HC40103E Counter IC Binary Counter 1-Element 8 Bit Negative Edge 16-PDIP

The CD74HC40103E is an 8-bit binary counter IC designed for efficient counting applications in digital circuits. This IC features a single 8-bit binary counter element that increments on the negative edge of the clock signal, providing precise control over counting operations. It is part of the HC (High-Speed CMOS) family, which offers fast switching speeds and low power consumption compared to traditional CMOS devices. The CD74HC40103E is housed in a 16-pin PDIP (Plastic Dual In-line Package), which is ideal for through-hole mounting and integration into a wide range of circuit designs. This binary counter counts from 0 to 255 in binary and outputs the count on 8 parallel output pins. It operates with a wide voltage range (2V to 6V), making it compatible with a variety of logic families. The negative edge triggering ensures that the counter increments reliably on the falling edge of the clock, which is useful for synchronous applications requiring precise timing. The CD74HC40103E is commonly used in frequency dividers, event counters, digital clocks, and time-delay circuits, where its 8-bit output enables efficient counting and easy integration into larger systems.
