The counter section provides direct static counting, guaranteed from DC to 15MHz, using a 5V 10% supply over the operating temperature range. At normal ambient temperatures, 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.
