1. General description
The 74HC191 is an asynchronously presettable 4-bit binary up/down counter. It contains
four master/slave flip-flops with internal gatin g and steering log ic to provide a synchronou s
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 input s (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 L OW when the clock is in either st ate,
however, the LOW-to-HIGH CE transition must occur only when the clock is HIGH. Also,
the U/D input should be changed only whe n 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 prese ttin g , or un til 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 puls e (CP). This feature simplifies the design of multistage
counters as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6. In Figure 5, each RC output is used as the
clock input to the next highe r st age. It is on ly necessary to inhibit the first st ag e 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 disad vantage of this
configuration in some applicatio ns. Figure 6 shows a method of causing state changes to
occur simultaneously in all stages. The RC outputs propagate the carr y/borrow signals in
ripple fashion and a ll clock inputs are driven in pa rallel. In this configuration the duration of
the clock LOW state must be lon g 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 af ter its CP input goes HIGH there is no
such restriction on the HIGH-state duration of the clock. In Figure 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 inh ibit counting. The TC output of a given stage it
not affected by its own CE signal therefore th e simple inhibit scheme of Figure 5 and
Figure 6 does not apply. Inputs includ e cla mp diodes. This enables the use of current
limiting resistors to interface inputs to voltag es in excess of VCC.

authorized or warranted to be suitable for use in life support, life-critical or
safety-critical systems or equipment, nor in applications where failure or
malfunction of an NXP Semiconductors product can reasonably be expect ed
to result in perso nal injury, death or severe property or environmental
damage. NXP Semiconductors and its suppliers accept no liability for
inclusion and/or use of NXP Semiconducto rs products in such equipment or

risk.
Applications — Applications that are described herein for any of these
products are for illustrative purposes only. NXP Semiconductors makes no
representation or warranty that such applications will be suitable for the
specified use without further testing or modification.
Customers are responsible for the design and ope ration of their applications
and products using NXP Semiconductors product s, and NXP Semiconductors
accepts no liability for any assistance with applications or customer product
design. It is customer’s sole responsibility to determine whether the NXP
Semiconductors product is suit able and fit for t he customer’s applications and
products planned, as well as fo r the planned application and use of
customer’s third party customer(s). Custo mers should provide appropriate
design and operating safeguards to minimize the risks associate d with t heir
applications and products.
NXP Semiconductors does not accept any liabil ity related to any default,
damage, costs or problem which is based on any weakness or default in the
