Question 29

The minimum number of JK flip-flops required to construct a synchronous counter with the count sequence (0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 0, 0,……) is ___________.

A
2
B
3
C
4
D
5
Question 29 Explanation: 
Count sequence mentioned is
00
00
01
01
10
10
11
11
In the above sequence two flip-flop’s will not be sufficient. Since we are confronted with repeated sequence, we may add another bit to the above sequence.
000
100
001
101
010
110
011
111
Now and every count is unique, occurring only once.
So finally 3-flip flops is required.
