1. General description

The 74HC393; 74HCT393 is a dual 4-stage binary ripple counter. Each counter features a clock

input (nCP), an overriding asynchronous master reset input (nMR) and 4 buffered parallel outputs

(nQ0 to nQ3). The counter advances on the HIGH-to-LOW transition of nCP. A HIGH on nMR

clears the counter stages and forces the outputs LOW, independent of the state of nCP. Inputs

include clamp diodes. This enables the use of current limiting resistors to interface inputs to

voltages in excess of VCC.
