Binary Count Sequence

Binary Count Sequence

If we examine a four-bit binary count sequence from 0000 to 1111, a definite pattern will be evident in the…

Synchronous Counters

A synchronous counter, in contrast to an asynchronous counter, is one whose output bits change state simultaneously, with no ripple. The only…

Asynchronous Counters

In the previous section, we saw a circuit using one J-K flip-flop that counted backward in a two-bit binary sequence, from 11…

Finite State Machines

Up to now, every circuit that was presented was a combinatorial circuit. That means that its output is dependent only by its…
