MOD 4 Synchronous Counter using T Flip-flop

 Here you would see how to design a MOD-4 Synchronous Counter using T Flip-flop step by step.


MOD 4 Synchronous Counter using T Flip-flop


Step 1: Find the number of Flip-flops needed

The number of Flip-flops  required can be determined by using the following equation:

M ≤ 2

where, M is the MOD number and N is the number of required flip-flops.

Here, MOD number is equal to 4. i.e., M = 4

Therefore, 4 ≤ 2

=> N = 2


Step 2: Write the excitation table of the flip-flop

Excitation table of T flip-flop is:

QN

QN+1

T

0

Step 3: Write the circuit state table by using excitation table

Circuit state table for designing MOD 4 Synchronous Counter using T Flip-flop would be

Step 4: Prepare K Map for each flip-flop input in terms of flip-flop outputs as the input variables

In this case inputs of the flip-flops are:  TA & T

K Map for TA :

Therefore,  TA =  Q


K Map for TB :

Therefore, TB = 1


Step 5: Draw the circuit using flip-flops and other gates correspond to the minimized expressions

Circuit for MOD 4 Synchronous Counter using T Flip-flop would be
