The 74161 (common variants 74LS161, 74HC161) is a 74-series logic 4-bit latch and upwards counter. Several discrete logic mappers use it as a latch.

Signal descriptions

While /Clear is low, Q is reset to 0.

When CountEnable and CarryIn are both high, a low-to-high transition on Clock increases the value of Q by 1, wrapping from 15 to 0.

CarryOut is high when CarryIn is high and Q is 15.

/Load causes Q to be set to the value of D on a low-to-high transition of Clock.
