Hi guys! Hope all is well with everyone. I had a question regarding design of circuits.
Lets take an example of a ready made 4 bit down counter that you could buy online. We all know that it employs flip flops with a ton of gates etc. Now let us say i try to design the same kind of counter from scratch using a truth table , karanaugh map etc .
Will my final circuit end up more or less close to the ready made IC's circuit? What I am trying to ask is if circuits that behave similarly will have more or less the same gates/components/ circuit diagrams?
Thank you
