1. General description

The 74HC191 is an asynchronously presettable 4-bit binary up/down counter. It contains four

master/slave flip-flops with internal gating and steering logic to provide asynchronous preset and

synchronous count-up and count-down operation. Asynchronous parallel load capability permits

the counter to be preset to any desired value. Information present on the parallel data inputs (D0

to D3) is loaded into the counter and appears on the outputs when the parallel load (PL) input is

LOW. This operation overrides the counting function. Counting is inhibited by a HIGH level on the

count enable (CE) input. When CE is LOW internal state changes are initiated synchronously by

the LOW-to-HIGH transition of the clock input. The up/down (U/D) input signal determines the

direction of counting as indicated in the function table. The CE input may go LOW when the clock is

in either state, however, the LOW-to-HIGH CE transition must occur only when the clock is HIGH.

Also, the U/D input should be changed only when either CE or CP is HIGH. Overflow/underflow

indications are provided by two types of outputs, the terminal count (TC) and ripple clock (RC).

The TC output is normally LOW and goes HIGH when a circuit reaches zero in the count-down

mode or reaches '15' in the count-up-mode. The TC output will remain HIGH until a state change

occurs, either by counting or presetting, or until U/D is changed. Do not use the TC output as a

clock signal because it is subject to decoding spikes. The TC signal is used internally to enable

the RC output. When TC is HIGH and CE is LOW, the RC output follows the clock pulse (CP). This

feature simplifies the design of multistage counters as shown in Fig. 5 and Fig. 6. In Fig. 5, each

RC output is used as the clock input to the next higher stage. It is only necessary to inhibit the

first stage to prevent counting in all stages, since a HIGH on CE inhibits the RC output pulse. The

timing skew between state changes in the first and last stages is represented by the cumulative

delay of the clock as it ripples through the preceding stages. This can be a disadvantage of this

configuration in some applications. Fig. 6 shows a method of causing state changes to occur

simultaneously in all stages. The RC outputs propagate the carry/borrow signals in ripple fashion

and all clock inputs are driven in parallel. In this configuration the duration of the clock LOW state

must be long enough to allow the negative-going edge of the carry/borrow signal to ripple through

to the last stage before the clock goes HIGH. Since the RC output of any package goes HIGH

shortly after its CP input goes HIGH there is no such restriction on the HIGH-state duration of the

clock. In Fig. 7, the configuration shown avoids ripple delays and their associated restrictions.

Combining the TC signals from all the preceding stages forms the CE input for a given stage. An

enable must be included in each carry gate in order to inhibit counting. The TC output of a given

stage it not affected by its own CE signal therefore the simple inhibit scheme of Fig. 5 and Fig. 6

does not apply. Inputs include clamp diodes. This enables the use of current limiting resistors to

interface inputs to voltages in excess of VCC.
