The first decade is implemented as a divide-by-2 ECL flip-flop ( | The first counter decade is implemented as a divide-by-2 ECL flip-flop (U329) followed by a five-stage ring counter made with discrete transistor pairs (note circular layout) and some logic to BCD-encode the count result. | ||
In early 7D14 units (board 388-1825-00), U329 was a Tek made IC, [[155-0046-00]], which was not used in other instruments. From SN B050000 on, a standard ECL part ([[156-0377-00]]) was used on a a redesigned high-frequency counter board (670-0993-01). | |||
