Your table has 6 inputs (start, reset, and the 4 bits for the counter). You'll need to add one for direction. Can you solve Kmaps with 7 variables?X1 and X0 are the inputs (start and reset). Do i need those inputs to find the next state equations?
In the requirements, what kind of flip-flops are needed to implement the counter?Hi,
As project for university i've been asked to design a 4 bit synchronous bouncing counter with start/reset input.
The counter is able to perform the following sequence when the start input is '1' or high: 15,2,3,4,5,6,7,6,5,4,3,2 and then repeat its cycle again.
If start input is low or '0' the counter's output should be its present state.
However, when a reset input is '1' or high, the counter should reset and start counting again from binary number 15.
Anyone able to explain me how to implement this circuit using the start/reset input?
