You need a counter that ticks up or down on the same clock and doesn't glitch mid-count. The 74HC193 is a synchronous binary counter built for exactly that — no ripple delay, clean transitions, and you pick the direction with one control line. HC-series CMOS means it sips power while keeping your timing tight. Drop it in, wire the clock, and count away
