Hello,

I have an IC counter that outputs 8 bits Q1,Q2...Q8.
Is there an IC that stores this output and keeps this data when power supply is cut?

Thanks
 

I think the post is not in right domain, it is more related to component.
 

There is flash memory (USB stick, camera, mp3, etc.)... if you can figure out how to read and write to the chips.

There is ferro-electric memory, which stores a charge on capacitors inside the IC. (Brand name Thinfilm)

Homebrew methods might include storing a charge on capacitors, supercapacitors, batteries. The data would be lost after a while of course.
