DE 3.2 Flashcards
Type of counter in which each flip-flop output serves as the clock input signal for the next flip-flop in the chain.
Asynchronous Counter
Group of flip-flops connected in a special arrangement in which the states of the flip-flops represent the binary number equivalent to the number of pulses that have occurred at the input of the counter.
Binary Counter
Any counter capable of going through 10 different logic states.
Decade Counter
Counter that counts from a maximum count downward to 0.
Down Counter
The number of states through which a counter sequences before repeating.
Modulus
A counter with a modulus of N.
Modulus N Counter
Counter in which all of the flip-flops are clocked simultaneously.
Synchronous Counter
Counter that counts upward from 0 to a maximum count.
Up Counter
Counter that can count up or down depending on how its inputs are activated.
Up/Down Counter
