Experiment No. 15: Laboratory Hand Book

This document provides instructions for experiments on ring counter and Johnson counter circuits using D-type flip-flops. The objectives are to implement simple ring counter and Johnson counter circuits. The equipment needed includes an ePAL trainer board, resistors, wires, and D-type flip-flops. The theory section explains how ring counters and Johnson counters work using circular shifting in flip-flops. Diagrams show the connections for 4-bit and 5-bit ring counters and Johnson counters. The procedures describe constructing the circuits and tasks to test 4-bit and 5-bit examples of each. Results are presented showing the output states when clear is high and low. The conclusion states the experiment implemented ring and Johnson counter circuits.

RING AND JOHNSON RING COUNTER
OBJECTIVE
 Implementation of simple ring counter circuits and Johnson counter circuits

EQUIPMENT
 ePAL Trainer Board and Proteus for online Lab
 2 resisters 1K ohm
 Connecting wires

COMPONENTs
 IC Type 7474 Dual D-Type flip-flops

THEORY
Shift register can be arranged to form several types of counters. All shift-register counters use
feedback, whereby the output of the last FF in the shift register is connected back to the first FF.
The ring counter and Johnson counter are most widely used shift register counters.
RING COUNTER
A ring counter is a circular shift register with only one FF being set at any particular time: all
other are cleared. The FFs are connected so that information shifts from left to right and back
around from Q0 to Q3. In most cases only a single 1 is in the register and it is made to circulate
around the register as long as clock pulses are applied. For this reason it is called ring counter.
The basic ring counter can be modified slightly to produce another type of shift-register counter,
which will have somewhat different properties.

JOHNSON OR TWISTED-RING COUNTER


The Johnson or twisted-ring counter is constructed exactly like a normal ring counter except that
the inverted output of the last FF is connected to the input of the first FF. The main advantage of
this type of ring counter is that it only needs half the number of flip-flops compared to the standard
ring counter then its modulo number is halved. So a “n-stage” Johnson counter will circulate a
single data bit giving sequence of 2n different states and can therefore be considered as a “mod-
2n counter”.
