How would I do this?
Modify this shift-register in the
following manner.
Disconnect the
wires on the J and K inputs of the first (left most) flip-flop.
Wire the Q output from the right-most
flip flop back to the J of the first flip-flop.
Now, wire the Q' of the right-most flip-flop back to the K
of the first flip-flop.
You have
just made a ring counter.
a) CLEAR the shift-register by moving the "C" switch
down then up. Move the DATA
switch to logic 0. Now, move the
PRELOAD switch to logic 0. Note
the outputs. Move the PRELOAD
switch back to logic 1. Toggle the
clock "B" two complete times and note the output. Account for this action.
b) Toggle the clock "B" two more complete times and
note the output. Account for this
action.
c) Why do they call a ring counter a data re-circulator?
