EPIC is a trademark of Texas Instruments Incorporated.
The 74ACT11590 contains an 8-bit binary counter that feeds an 8-bit storage register. The storage register has parallel outputs. Separate clocks are provided for both the binary counter and storage register.
The binary counter features a direct clear (CCLR\) input and a
count-enable (CCKEN\) input. For cascading, a ripple-carry (
) output is
provided. Expansion is easily accomplished for two stages by
connecting
of the first stage to CCKEN\ of the second stage.
Cascading for larger count chains can be accomplished by connecting
of
each stage to CCK of the following stage.
Both the register and the counter have individual positive-edge-triggered clocks. If both clocks are connected together, the counter state is always one count ahead of the register. Internal circuitry prevents clocking from the clock enable.
The 74ACT11590 is characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C.
