Anyone used a 74HC191 UP/DOWN Counter, 3-stages?

Is there a way I can limit Terminal Count to 10-Bit?

Thanks!

No real use, just need it as a behavioral counter for simulations ;-)

I've used that chip or one of it's cousins, but that was a long
time ago.

I don't think you can get a simple TC out for the middle of the
chip. If you are just counting up, you can brew your own with
a 3 input AND gate using the TC in and the bottom two bits of
the top chip. Mumble, I'm not sure of the polarity on the TC.
It might take some inverters.

Check MC14158 or possibly 74LS491
Might be time to get a PIC

Try a 74190 or 74192 or 74196 decade counter

(I assume you mean a count of 10, since all of these are 4 bit
counters.)

If U/D is low (you're counting up) you could decode 0x0cff and use the
decode to broadside load zeros into the counters.
_ __
Conversely, if U/D is high (counting down), you could use RC to load
0x0cff into the counters.

As these are 4-bit counters you will need three of them. Each has its own TC
so to get a TC for the whole counter, you need to *AND* the TCs. To limit
the counter to 10 bits, you'll have to make your own TC for the two least
significant bits of the most significant chip.

It's what you learn, after you know it all, that counts.

Sorry - I missed the "three stages" when I saw your message in ABSE,
and realized my error when I saw it again in SED.

can't you just ignore the two high bits ? or do the top two bits some
other way?

I need to simulate what another designer will ultimately do at
device-level. Counter must not over-run, top or bottom. (It's a
tracking ADC.)

I have it cobbled together and running with existing digital
(behavioral) parts in PSpice; so I can test my analog portions
quickly.

Is there an analog way to stabilize the outputs?

ah, I suppose you've already thought of this:

TC0 ---------------------------+- ___
TC1 ---------------------------|&)-- CE0
.---+-
bit8 --+------+- |
bit9 +-|------|&)---. |
| | .-o-+- | |
_ | | | `--+ |
U/D -|-|-+----+ )1-'
| `------)1o-----+
`--------+

TC0 and TC1 are TC from the low order chips ___
bit8,9 are D0 & D1 fron the high chip, and CE0
is clock enable on the low chip.


or could you just clock it 4 times faster and ignore the low bits?___
then you'd just need to and the three TCs together and feed it to CE0
