Counters
Counters are digital circuits designed to count clock pulses or other input events. They typically consist of flip flops along, with logic gates.
Counters are available, in types:
- Asynchronous Counters: These counters change their state at times usually in response to external clock signals. They find usage in applications, such, as frequency division and event counting.
- Synchronous Counters: In this counter all flip flops change their state simultaneously upon receiving a common clock signal. These counters are commonly employed in applications that require timing.
Registers Vs Counters
In the domain of logic registers and counters are the two components that have distinct roles, in storing and manipulating data. We will explore the definitions, examples, applications, advantages, and disadvantages of registers and counters, illuminating their functions in systems in this article.
