7493 Binary Counter 4-Bit 5V 9mA IC DIP-14

The 7493 Binary Counter is a TTL logic integrated circuit designed for binary counting and frequency division applications. It consists of a divide-by-2 section and a divide-by-8 section, which can be connected together to create a 4-bit binary counter with a counting sequence from 0 to 15. The outputs represent the binary count, making the IC suitable for digital systems that require pulse counting or binary data generation.
The IC features separate clock inputs for its counter sections and reset inputs for clearing the count. When configured as a complete 4-bit counter, it can be used in digital clocks, frequency dividers, event counters, and sequential logic circuits. Its 14-pin DIP package supports through-hole PCB mounting and makes it convenient for prototyping, educational experiments, and general-purpose digital electronics.
