Do you know how to build a counter out of Flip Flops?
Do you know how to use the Clear and Preset pins of the FFs?

If the counter has reached the maximum desired number, a logic gate circuit can detect that event and reset the FF counter.

i have to make a scheme
it's theoretical course

I know basics ...

I can build simple 4 bit counter , that uses jk trigers

Also, i've got article "TTL type counter mod 10"..
But i can't do anew it as mod 12

i've been searching on internet and here, but i havent found anything..
I've tried to do it myself, but fail.. :(

Post an image of your modulo 10 counter so we can talk over it.

If you examine it, you will see some logical gates placed in a way that they produce a '0' everytime 10 is reached on the count. That zero should be fed on the reset pin.

Of course this is what usually happens. Post your picture and we 'll talk more.

I'm afraid I don't understand what your circuit does. How is the AND circuit supposed to see the number 10? How is it supposed to reset the counter if it sets only the two middle FFs?

Check this site for a proper modulo 5 counter:
http://www.ustudy.in/node/7538

Notice that the designer has a AND gate that detects a 'HIGH' on the bits 0 and 2, which is basically when 5 comes up. Then he resets with the AND gate all of the FFs of the counter.

If you understood what he did, care to make another effort?

removed first 2 triggers from "high" .
Now all triggers "reset" are connected to CLR
