Question

(6pts) using one 74x169 and three inverters, design a counter with the counting sequence 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 4, 3 ...

Answer 1

To design the counter with the desired counting sequence, use a 74x169 IC and three inverters.

Step-by-step explanation:

To design the counter with the given counting sequence, you can use a 74x169 IC (integrated circuit) along with three inverters.

1. Connect the Q0, Q1, and Q2 outputs of the 74x169 IC to the three inverters, respectively.
2. Output the inverted values to the clear (CLR) input of the 74x169 IC.
3. Set the initial value of the counter by applying the appropriate clock (CLK) pulse to the 74x169 IC.

This setup will allow the counter to count in the sequence specified: 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 4, 3, and so on.
