1)What is a Counter?
A sequential circuit that goes through a prescribed sequence of states upon the application of input pulses is called a counter.
Define Count Pulses.
The input pulses, called count pulses, may be Clock Pulses, or they may originate from an external source and may occur at prescribed intervals of time or at random.
What is a Binary Counter?
A counter that follows the binary sequence is called a binary counter.
What is a Synchronous Counter?
In synchronous counter the common clock pulse or main clock pulse triggers all the flip-flops simultaneously.
