The MC54/74HCT161A and HCT163A are identical in pinout to the LS161A and LS163A. These devices may be used as level converters for interfacing TTL or NMOS outputs to high speed CMOS inputs. The HCT161A and HCT163A are programmable 4–bit binary counters with asynchronous and synchronous reset, respectively.
