• Manufacturer: Motorola

Divide–By–N, Single Stage
The MC14522B (BCD version) can accept a number greater
than 9 and count down in binary fashion. Hence, the BCD
and binary single stage divide–by–N counters (as shown in
Figure 11) function the same.
puts (P0, P1, P2, and P3) and reset is taken high asynchro-
nously. A zero is forced into the master and slave of each bit
and, at the same time, the “0” output goes high. Because
Preset Enable is tied to the “0” output, preset is enabled. Re-
set must be released while the Clock is high so the slaves of
each bit may receive N before the Clock goes low. When the
Clock goes low and Reset is low, the “0” output goes low (if
P0 through P3 are unequal to zero).
Clock. When the counter reaches the zero state, an output
pulse occurs on “0” which presets N. The propagation delays
from the Clock’s rising and falling edges to the “0” output’s
rising and falling edges are about equal, making the “0” out-
put pulse approximately equal to that of the Clock pulse.

the leading stages (more significant bits) are zero, the “0”
output goes high and feeds back to the preceding stage.
When all stages are zero, the Preset Enable automatically
loads N while the Clock is high and the cycle is renewed.
