74F169
4-Stage Synchronous Bidirectional Counter
General Description
The 74F169 is a fully synchronous 4-stage up/down
counter. The 74F169 is a modulo-16 binary counter. Fea-
tures a preset capability for programmable operation, carry
lookahead for easy cascading and a U/D input to control
the direction of counting. All state changes, whether in
counting or parallel loading, are initiated by the
LOW-to-HIGH transition of the clock.

Functional Description
The 74F169 uses edge-triggered J-K type flip-flops and
has no constraints on changing the control or data input
signals in either state of the clock. The only requirement is
that the various inputs attain the desired state at least a
setup time before the rising edge of the clock and remain
valid for the recommended hold time thereafter. The paral-
lel load operation takes precedence over other operations,
as indicated in the Mode Select Table. When PE is LOW,
the data on the P
0
–P
3
inputs enters the flip-flops on the
next rising edge of the clock. In order for counting to occur,
both CEP and CET must be LOW and PE must be HIGH;
the U/D input then determines the direction of counting.
The Terminal Count (TC) output is normally HIGH and goes
LOW, provided that CET is LOW, when a counter reaches
zero in the Count Down mode or reaches 15 for the
74F169 in the Count Up mode. The TC output state is not a
function of the Count Enable Parallel (CEP) input level.
Since the TC signal is derived by decoding the flip-flop
states, there exists the possibility of decoding spikes on
TC. For this reason the use of TC as a clock signal is not
recommended (see logic equations below).

Absolute maximum ratings are values beyond which the device
may be damaged or have its useful life impaired. Functional operation
under these conditions is not implied.
Note 2:
Either voltage limit or current limit is sufficient to protect inputs.
