Digital counters have several applications in electronics circuits. Counters in digital electronics are used at different situations. Here we are going to deliver the idea of aRing counter circuit, which is a register counter. Working animation and circuit simulation video of ring counter are also given along with this article. A ring counter is f

ormed by feeding the output of a shift register to its own input. The data pattern enclosed within the shift register will re-circulate as with respect to the clock pulse. Ring counter is one of the shift register applications. We have already posted Johnson counter circuit with animation. With little modification on ring counter we can obtain Johnson counter circuit. A ring counter has N states where N` is the number of flip-flops. So let`s discus about digital counter circuit design (Ring counter) in detail with animation/ simulation. This counter is a circulated shift register. Here a 4 bit shift register is implemented with 7474 flip flops. This is a synchronous counter because clock signal is common for all flip flops. Preset` pin of 1st unit is connected to Vcc via a switch (Push to OFF switch). Preset pin is used to set the output of a flip flop to logical high (1)forcefully. The Presets` of other flip flops are directly coupled to Vcc in order to work properly because these pins are active low logic pins (This connection is not shown in above circuit. For simplicity it is removed). But don`t forget to connect it while you are implementing practically. This output will be shifted to the next flip flop during the next clock pulse and so on. At the same time the low output from last flip flop is shifted to the input of 1st flip flop.
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
