74HC390D

The 74HC390D is a dual 4-bit binary counter integrated circuit, part of the 74HC family of high-speed CMOS logic devices. It features two separate counters that can operate independently or in a cascaded configuration. Each counter can count in binary, offering a range of 0 to 15 (0000 to 1111 in binary), and can be reset asynchronously.
Key features include:
- Dual 4-bit binary counting capability.
- Asynchronous reset for immediate counter control.
- Count enable inputs for selective counting.
- High-speed operation with a typical propagation delay of 15 ns.
- Low power consumption and high noise immunity.
The device is commonly used in applications such as frequency division, digital clocks, and event counters. Its versatility and ease of integration make it a popular choice in digital electronics design. The 74HC390D is available in multiple package types, including DIP and surface mount options, facilitating its use in a wide range of electronic projects.

The 74HC390D is a dual 4-bit decade counter that offers several key features:
1. Dual Counter: Contains two separate 4-bit counters (Counter A and Counter B) that can operate independently or be interconnected.
2. Decade Counting: Capable of counting from 0 to 9 in binary for each counter.
3. Asynchronous Reset: Each counter can be reset asynchronously, allowing for immediate clearing of the count.
4. Direct Reset: Supports direct reset inputs for setting the counters to a specific state.
5. Clock Input: Designed to work with standard TTL logic levels, with a clock input that triggers on a positive edge.
6. Outputs: Provides both individual and combined output capabilities, allowing for versatile display or control applications.
7. Low Power Consumption: Operates with low power, typical of HC (High-speed CMOS) logic families.
8. Wide Voltage Range: Compatible with a variety of supply voltages, enhancing its versatility in different circuits.
These features make the 74HC390D suitable for applications in digital electronics, frequency division, and timer circuits.

The 74HC390D is typically packaged in a 16-pin DIP (Dual In-line Package) format. This package type features two rows of pins, making it suitable for through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards.

The 74HC390D is a dual 4-bit binary ripple counter. It features a total of 16 pins, organized as follows:
1. Pin Count: 16 pins (DIP package).

2. Functions:
- Counter Outputs: Q0 to Q3 (Pins 3, 2, 6, 5) provide the binary count outputs.
- Count Enable Pins: A and B (Pins 14 and 1) enable counting functions for each section.
- Reset Pins: R1 and R2 (Pins 11 and 12) reset the counters asynchronously.
- Clock Inputs: CLK1 and CLK2 (Pins 10 and 7) receive the clock signals for counting.
- Ground and VCC: Pins 8 and 16 serve as ground (GND) and power supply (VCC), respectively.
- Mode Select: Pins 4 and 15 control the counting mode (decade or binary).
This device is commonly used in digital circuits for counting applications.
