Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a circuit using flip-flops to create a decade counter. Outline your approach and necessary components.

💡 Hint: Consider how to manipulate the flip-flop inputs to achieve the decade limit.

Challenge 2 Hard

If you build a binary counter, how would you modify it to function as a decade counter without changing the number of bits?

💡 Hint: Think about how to control the output when it reaches a specified state.
