Binary Counter
Systems I: Computer Organization and Architecture Lecture 8: Registers and Counters Registers • A register is a group of flip-flops. – Each flip-flop stores one bit of data; n flip-flops are required to store n bits of data. – There are several different types of registers available commercially. – The simplest design is a register consisting only of flip- flops, with no other gates in the circuit. • Loading the register – transfer of new data into the register. • The flip-flops share a common clock pulse (frequently using a buffer to reduce power requirements). • Output could be sampled at any time. • Clearing the flip-flop (placing zeroes in all its bit) can be done through a special terminal on the flip-flop. 1 4-bit Register I0 D Q A0 Clock C I1 D Q A1 C I D Q 2 A2 C D Q A I3 3 C Clear Registers With Parallel Load • The clock usually provides a steady stream of pulses which are applied to all flip-flops in the system. • A separate control system is needed to determine when to load a particular register. • The Register with Parallel Load has a separate load input. – When it is cleared, the register receives it output as input. – When it is set, it received the load input. 2 4-bit Register With Parallel Load Load D Q A0 I0 C D Q A1 C I1 D Q A2 I2 C D Q A3 I3 C Clock Shift Registers • A shift register is a register which can shift its data in one or both directions. -

1 DIGITAL COUNTER and APPLICATIONS a Digital Counter Is
Dr. Ehab Abdul- Razzaq AL-Hialy Electronics III DIGITAL COUNTER AND APPLICATIONS A digital counter is a device that generates binary numbers in a specified count sequence. The counter progresses through the specified sequence of numbers when triggered by an incoming clock waveform, and it advances from one number to the next only on a clock pulse. The counter cycles through the same sequence of numbers continuously so long as there is an incoming clock pulse. The binary number sequence generated by the digital counter can be used in logic systems to count up or down, to generate truth table input variable sequences for logic circuits, to cycle through addresses of memories in microprocessor applications, to generate waveforms of specific patterns and frequencies, and to activate other logic circuits in a complex process. Two common types of counters are decade counters and binary counters. A decade counter counts a sequence of ten numbers, ranging from 0 to 9. The counter generates four output bits whose logic levels correspond to the number in the count sequence. Figure (1) shows the output waveforms of a decade counter. Figure (1): Decade Counter Output Waveforms. A binary counter counts a sequence of binary numbers. A binary counter with four output bits counts 24 or 16 numbers in its sequence, ranging from 0 to 15. Figure (2) shows-the output waveforms of a 4-bit binary counter. 1 Dr. Ehab Abdul- Razzaq AL-Hialy Electronics III Figure (2): Binary Counter Output Waveforms. EXAMPLE (1): Decade Counter. Problem: Determine the 4-bit decade counter output that corresponds to the waveforms shown in Figure (1). -

Overview of the MIPS Architecture: Part I
Overview of the MIPS Architecture: Part I CS 161: Lecture 0 1/24/17 Looking Behind the Curtain of Software • The OS sits between hardware and user-level software, providing: • Isolation (e.g., to give each process a separate memory region) • Fairness (e.g., via CPU scheduling) • Higher-level abstractions for low-level resources like IO devices • To really understand how software works, you have to understand how the hardware works! • Despite OS abstractions, low-level hardware behavior is often still visible to user-level applications • Ex: Disk thrashing Processors: From the View of a Terrible Programmer Letter “m” Drawing of bird ANSWERS Source code Compilation add t0, t1, t2 lw t3, 16(t0) slt t0, t1, 0x6eb21 Machine instructions A HARDWARE MAGIC OCCURS Processors: From the View of a Mediocre Programmer • Program instructions live Registers in RAM • PC register points to the memory address of the instruction to fetch and execute next • Arithmetic logic unit (ALU) performs operations on PC registers, writes new RAM values to registers or Instruction memory, generates ALU to execute outputs which determine whether to branches should be taken • Some instructions cause Devices devices to perform actions Processors: From the View of a Mediocre Programmer • Registers versus RAM Registers • Registers are orders of magnitude faster for ALU to access (0.3ns versus 120ns) • RAM is orders of magnitude larger (a PC few dozen 32-bit or RAM 64-bit registers versus Instruction GBs of RAM) ALU to execute Devices Instruction Set Architectures (ISAs) -
Design and Implementation of High Speed Counters Using “MUX Based Full Adder (MFA)”

I (Jul.-Aug. 2019), PP 57-64 www.iosrjournals.org Design and Implementation of High speed counters using “MUX based Full Adder (MFA)” K.V.Jyothi1, G.P.S. Prashanti2, 1Student, 2Assistant Professor 1,2,(Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, Gayatri Vidya Parishad College of Engineering For Women,Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, India) Corresponding Author: K.V.Jyothi Abstract: In this brief, a new binary counter design is proposed. Counters are used to determine how many number of inputs are active (in the logic ONE state) for multi input circuits. In the existing systems 6:3 and 7:3 Counters are designed with full and half adders, parallel counters, stacking circuits. It uses 3-bit stacking and 6-bit stacking circuits which group all the “1” bits together and then stacks are converted into binary counts. This leads to increase in delay and area. To overcome this problem “MUX based Full adder (MFA)” 6:3 and 7:3 counters are proposed. The backend counter simulations are achieved by using MENTOR GRAPHICS in 130nm technology and frontend simulations are done by using XILINX. This MFA counter is faster than existing stacking counters and also consumesless area. Additionally, using this counters in Wallace tree multiplier architectures reduces latency for 64 and 128-bit multipliers. Keywords: stacking circuits, parallel counters,High speed counters, MUX based full adder (MFA) counter,Mentor graphics,Xilinx,SPARTAN-6 FPGA. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- Date of Submission: 28-07-2019 Date of acceptance: 13-08-2019 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- I. -
