The ICM7217 is a four digit, presettable up/down counter with
an onboard presettable register continuously compared to the
counter. The ICM7217 is intended for use in hard-wired
applications where thumbwheel switches are used for loading
data, and simple SPDT switches are used for chip control.
This circuit provides multiplexed 7 segment LED display
outputs, with common anode or common cathode
configurations available. Digit and segment drivers are
provided to directly drive displays of up to 0.8 inch
character height (common anode) at a 25% duty cycle. The
frequency of the onboard multiplex oscillator may be
controlled with a single capacitor, or the oscillator may be
allowed to free run. Leading zeros can be blanked. The
data appearing at the 7 segment and BCD outputs is
latched; the content of the counter is transferred into the
latches under external control by means of the Store pin.
The ICM7217 (common anode) and ICM7217A (common
cathode) versions are decade counters, providing a
maximum count of 9999, while the ICM7217B (common
anode) and ICM7217C (common cathode) are intended for
timing purposes, providing a maximum count of 5959.
This circuit provides 3 main outputs; a CARRY/BORROW
output, which allows for direct cascading of counters, a
ZERO output, which indicates when the count is zero, and
an EQUAL output, which indicates when the count is equal
to the value contained in the register. Data is multiplexed to
and from the device by means of a three-state BCD I/O port.
The CARRY/BORROW, EQUAL, ZERO outputs, and the
BCD port will each drive one standard TTL load.
To permit operation in noisy environments and to prevent
multiple triggering with slowly changing inputs, the count
input is provided with a Schmitt trigger.
Input frequency is guaranteed to 2MHz, although the device will
typically run with fIN as high as 5MHz. Counting and comparing
(EQUAL output) will typically run 750kHz maximum.
