Pr oject Explanat ion Session : 16 A ugust 15, 2010

Count er s A pplicat ions:
Pat t er n Gener at or s

Count er St at e Diagr am:
modulus-m count er [ Count er wit h m st at es]



A synchr onous Count er [ Ripple Count er ]
A dvant ages : Simple in design
Disadvant ages : Set t ling t ime in t he wor st case=n*Tpr opagat ion

Synchr onous Count er :
A dvant ages: Set t ling is f ast
Disadvant ages: Design is mor e complex.


Digit al Clock Pr oject :
1- Seconds Count er s
[ Two BCD(Decade) Count er s t o count f r om 00 t ill 59]
The f ir st count er must be BCD r ipple count er implement ed
using JK f lip f lops.
The second count er must be BCD synchr onous count er
implement ed using JK f lip f lops.

The t wo seven segment s must be common anode.
The f ir st seven segment decoder should be implement ed using
combinat ional logic gat es [ A ND,OR] A f t er simplif ying t he
decoder f unct ion t able using k-map.
The Second seven segment decoder could be a single I C 7447


2- Minut es Count er
Two BCD count er s t o count f r om 00 t ill 59
Bot h must be a single Count er I C [ 74L S90]

The t wo seven segment s must be common anode wit h t heir
BCD t o 7-segment decoder implement ed as an I C.
