Datasheet

Official datasheet Decade counter (SN74LS90) 7490 - Counters

The datasheet for Decade counter (SN74LS90) 7490 provides complete technical information including pin diagram, electrical characteristics and typical applications.

Category: Counters | Type: BCD Counter (mod-10) | Configuration: 4 BCD outputs, 2 clock inputs

The SN74LS90 is a decade counter (divide by 10). It consists of four master-slave flip-flops and logic for binary/BCD counting. It provides QA...QD outputs; can obtain a square wave of 10 (or cycle of 10) by connecting QD to the clock input. It has synchronous reset and preset. Widely used for BCD digit counters in educational projects.

Applications

  • BCD digit counters
  • Frequency dividers
  • Digital clocks
  • Event counters
  • Sequence generators

These applications show the versatility of the component in different areas of electronics.
