MC74HC160A is a 4-bit asynchronous binary counter with synchronous reset and provides logic for incrementing and cascading counter functions. The circuit is designed such that the outputs will toggle if both the associated COUNT and LOAD inputs are high. Its versatile design allows to application field from frequency division to limiting the rate of data transfer. The chip set also come in a 3-state output version is MC74HC174.

Application field of MC74HC160ADTR2G

MC74HC160ADTR2G counters are used in numerous applications, such as frequency division and rate limiting. Generally, these counters can be used as follows:

• Frequency division: By connecting the four jacks (B1 – B4) and (C1 – C4) of the counter chip, a frequency division network is created. The B1 was used as the input while C4, C3, C2 and C1 are used as the outputs.
• Timing and counting applications: MC74HC160ADTR2G can also be used for timing and counting applications. As discussed earlier, the outputs of the chip toggle depending on the COUNT inputs and the LOAD input.
• Limiting the rate of data transfer: MC74HC160ADTR2G can be used to limit the rate of data transfer by providing a maximum data rate index by increasing the time delay in between consecutive LOAD pulses. This time delay can be adjusted to the desired delay interval.

Working principle of MC74HC160ADTR2G

The working principle of MC74HC160ADTR2G is based on the logic circuit design. The chip contains a four-bit synchronous counter with a data input, clocking input and reset input. The circuit is designed such that the outputs will toggle if both the associated COUNT and LOAD inputs are high. The data input is used to set the initial state of the counter. The clocking input is used to trigger the counting cycle. When the clock pulse is low, the counter progresses from the initial state to the incremented state.

When the clock pulse is high, the counter will reset and the initialization state will be set again. The reset input can be used to reset the counter to zero at any time. A separate latch is provided to latch the outputs. This latch can be used to hold the outputs in high state even after the reset of the counter.

The main advantage of MC74HC160ADTR2G is that it can be used in different circuits for different purposes. It can be used to divide the frequency of the input signal, or it can be used to limit the rate of data transfer. The design is also versatile and can be tailored to user’s specific needs. Finally, the chip comes in a 3-state output version (MC74HC174) which allows more flexibility in application fields.
