MIC50395/50396/50397
Six Decade Counter / Display Decoder
Not Recommended for New Designs
General Description
Features
The MIC50395 is an ion-implanted, P-channel MOS six-
decade synchronous up/down-counter/display driver with
compare-register and storage-latches. The counter as well
as the register can be loaded digit-by-digit with BCD data.
The counter has an asynchronous-clear function.

Loadable counter
Scanning is controlled by the scan oscillator input which is
self-oscillating or can be driven by an external signal. The
six-decade register is constantly compared to the state of
the six-decade counter and when both the register and the
counter have the same content, an EQUAL signal is gener-
ated. The contents of the counter can be transferred into the
6-digit latch which is then multiplexed from MSD to LSD in
BCD and 7-segment format to the output. The seven-
segment decoder incorporates a leading-zero blanking
circuit which can be disabled by an external signal. This
device is intended to interface directly with the standard
CMOS logic families.

Ordering Information
The MIC50396 and MIC50397 operate identically to the
MIC50395 except that two digits in each were reprogrammed
to provide divide by six circuitry instead of divide by ten. The
MIC50396 is well suited for industrial timer applications while
the MIC50397 is best suited for stop watch or real time
computer clock applications.
