For up/down counters try the CD4029. 4000-series CMOS is real pokey
when it comes to speed. This is good. It simply cannot narrow noise
pulses that would give false counts when using faster IC logic
families.

A very knowledgeable person has suggested that I uses a CMOS binary

to set up a circuit used to test my SMPS.
I need to take a look at Digi-Key or Mouser and select a binary
counter.
I think your basic commodity grade might work.
Any favorite IC's ?
I am working with 80kHz signal if that is a selection factor.
I will read up on the use of these things but if you guys are using
these
you might know what is reliable item.
