Hello,
Can I please get some help in designing a digital counter circuit?
Here is the problem:
The 74LS161 IC is a 4-bit MOD 16 UP counter. Here is the datasheet:
http://pdf1.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/view/5675/MOTOROLA/74LS161.html
The inputs are clock, CEP , CET, asynch CLEAR', synch LOAD' and 4 input to load data.
The outputs are terminal count and the 4 register outputs.
I want to use 2 of this component to generate an 8-bit MOD 256 UP counter.
How do I connect them together? What external component do I use?
