74LS293 Decade and 4-bit Binary Counter
The 74LS series of integrated circuits (ICs) was one of the most popular logic families of transistor-transistor logic (TTL) logic chips. 74LS series is a bipolar, low-power Schottky IC. 74LS293 monolithic counters contain four master-slave flip-flops and additional gating to provide a divide-by-two counter and a three-stage binary counter.

74LS293 Features
- Identical in Function to the 74LS93 with Different Pin Arrangement
- Contains Four Master-Slave Flips-Flops together with a Binary Counter
- Gated Zero Reset
- Fast Propagation Speeds
- Low Power Dissipation
