Additional Details

The DM74163N typically comes in a 16-pin DIP (Dual In-line Package). Key specifications include the maximum clock frequency, supply voltage range, and propagation delays. The synchronous clear input allows for resetting the counter to zero on the next clock pulse. The carry output indicates when the counter has reached its maximum count, allowing for cascading with other DM74163N devices to create counters of arbitrary length. Consult the device datasheet for complete electrical characteristics and application information. The 'N' suffix typically denotes a plastic DIP package.
