Features
Description
1
• High Frequency Counting - Guaranteed 15MHz, Typically The ICM7224 device is a high-performance, CMOS 4 /
2
25MHz at 5V
digit counter, including decoder, output latch, display driver,
count inhibit, leading zero blanking, and reset circuitry.
• Low Power Operation - Typically Less Than 100µW
Quiescent
The counter section provides direct static counting, guaran-
teed from DC to 15MHz, using a 5V ±10% supply over the
operating temperature range. At normal ambient tempera-
tures, the devices will typically count up to 25MHz. The
COUNT input is provided with a Schmitt trigger to allow
operation in noisy environments and correct counting with
slowly changing inputs. The COUNT INHIBIT, STORE and
RESET inputs allow a direct interface with the ICM7207 and
ICM7207A to implement a low cost, low power frequency
counter with a minimum component count.
• STORE and RESET Inputs Permit Operation as
Frequency or Period Counter
• True COUNT INHIBIT Disables First Counter Stage
• CARRY Output for Cascading Four-Digit Blocks
• Schmitt-Trigger on the COUNT Input Allows Operation
in Noisy Environments or with Slowly Changing Inputs
• Leading Zero Blanking INput and OUTput for Correct
Leading Zero Blanking with Cascaded Devices
These devices also incorporate several features intended to
simplify cascading four-digit blocks. The CARRY output
allows the counter to be cascaded, while the Leading Zero
Blanking INput and OUTput allows correct Leading Zero
Blanking between four-decade blocks. The BackPlane driver
of the LCD devices may be disabled, allowing the segments
to be slaved to another backplane signal, necessary when
using an eight or twelve digit, single backplane display.
• Provides Complete Onboard Oscillator and Divider
Chain to Generate Backplane Frequency, or
Backplane Driver May be Disabled Allowing Segments
to be Slaved to a Master Backplane Signal
Pinout
These devices provide maximum count of 19999. The
display drivers are not of the multiplexed type and each dis-
play segment has its own individual drive pin, providing high
quality display outputs.
