Synchronous and Asynchronous Counter

Synchronous Counter

In synchronous counters, the clock inputs of all the flip-flops are connected together and are triggered by the input pulses.  Thus, all the flip-flops change state simultaneously (in parallel).  The circuit below is a 3-bit synchronous counter.  The J and K inputs of FF0 are connected to HIGH.  FF1 has its J and K inputs connected to the output of FF0, and the J and K inputs of FF2 are connected to the output of an AND gate that is fed by the outputs of FF0 and FF1.


Asynchronous Counter

An asynchronous (ripple) counter is a single d-type flip-flop, with its J (data) input fed from its own inverted output. This circuit can store one bit, and hence can count from zero to one before it overflows (starts over from 0). This counter will increment once for every clock cycle and takes two clock cycles to overflow, so every cycle it will alternate between a transition from 0 to 1 and a transition from 1 to 0. Notice that this creates a new clock with a 50% duty cycle at exactly half the frequency of the input clock. If this output is then used as the clock signal for a similarly arranged D flip-flop (remembering to invert the output to the input), one will get another 1 bit counter that counts half as fast.

Logic Gates: Schematic and Truth Table

Logic Gatesperform basic logical functions and are the fundamental building blocks of digital integrated circuits. Most logic gates take an input of two binary values, and output a single value of a 1 or 0. Some circuits may have only a few logic gates, while others, such as microprocessors, may have millions of them.

Schematic - is a representation of the elements of a system using abstract, graphic symbols rather than realistic pictures. A schematic usually omits all details that are not relevant to the information the schematic is intended to convey, and may add unrealistic elements that aid comprehension.

Truth Tableare used to help show the function of a logic gate.

1. AND gate is an electronic circuit that gives a high output (1) only if all its inputs are high.  A dot (.) is used to show the AND operation. 
   - True if A and B are both True

Schematic                                                                       Truth Table
                       


2. OR gate is an electronic circuit that gives a high output (1) if one or more of its inputs are high.  A plus (+) is used to show the OR operation.
   - True if either A or B are True

Schematic                                                                    Truth Table
                       


3. NOT gate is an electronic circuit that produces an inverted version of the input at its output.  It is also known as an inverter.  If the input variable is A, the inverted output is known as NOT A.  This is also shown as A', or A with a bar over the top, as shown at the outputs. The diagrams below show two ways that the NAND logic gate can be configured to produce a NOT gate. It can also be done using NOR logic gates in the same way.

  -  Inverts value: True if input is False; False if input is True


Schematic                                                                    Truth Table
                              

4. NOT-AND or NAND gate which is equal to an AND gate followed by a NOT gate.  The outputs of all NAND gates are high if any of the inputs are low. The symbol is an AND gate with a small circle on the output. The small circle represents inversion.
  - AND followed by NOT: False only if A and B are both True

Schematic                                                                      Truth Table
                        

5. NOT-OR or NOR gate which is equal to an OR gate followed by a NOT gate.  The outputs of all NOR gates are low if any of the inputs are high. The symbol is an OR gate with a small circle on the output. The small circle represents inversion.
  - OR followed by NOT: True only if A and B are both False

Schematic                                                                      Truth Table
                      


6.  'Exclusive-OR' or EXOR gate is a circuit which will give a high output if either, but not both, of its two inputs are high.  An encircled plus sign () is used to show the EOR operation.
  - True if either A or B are True, but False if both are True

Schematic                                                                      Truth Table
                      

7.  'Exclusive-NOR' or EXNOR gate circuit does the opposite to the EOR gate. It will give a low output if either, but not both, of its two inputs are high. The symbol is an EXOR gate with a small circle on the output. The small circle represents inversion.
  - XOR followed by NOT: True if A and B are both True or both False

Schematic                                                                    Truth Table

Resistor Code

the electronic color code is used to indicate the values or ratings of electronic components, very commonly for resistors, but also for capacitorsinductors, and others.

RESISTOR COLOR CHART




Resistor color-coding

 

  • band A is first significant figure of component value (left side)
  • band B is the second significant figure (Some precision resistors have a third significant figure, and thus five bands.)
  • band C is the decimal multiplier
  • band D if present, indicates tolerance of value in percent (no band means 20%)

Ohm's law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the potential difference across the two points. Introducing the constant of proportionality, the resistance,one arrives at the usual mathematical equation that describes this relationship:
I = V/R
where I is the current through the conductor in units of amperes, V is the potential difference measured across the conductor in units ofvolts, and R is the resistance of the conductor in units of ohms. More specifically, Ohm's law states that the R in this relation is constant, independent of the current.
The law was named after the German physicist Georg Ohm, who, in a treatise published in 1827, described measurements of applied voltage and current through simple electrical circuits containing various lengths of wire. He presented a slightly more complex equation than the one above (see History section below) to explain his experimental results. The above equation is the modern form of Ohm's law.

In physics, the term Ohm's law is also used to refer to various generalizations of the law originally formulated by Ohm. The simplest example of this is:
J=  σE,
where J is the current density at a given location in a resistive material, E is the electric field at that location, and σ is a material dependent parameter called the conductivity. This reformulation of Ohm's law is due to Gustav Kirchhoff.

Parallel Circuit - is a two or more electrical devices in a circuit can be connected by series connections or by parallel connections. When all the devices are connected using parallel connections.

Series Circuit - a circuit composed solely of components connected in series is known as a series circuit.
