Having utilized pre-packaged counter ICs, Module 2 challenges you to construct memory and counting circuits entirely from the ground up. You will delve into the mechanics of sequential logic, exploring the internal architecture of latches, D flip-flops, and shift registers. By understanding how circuits store data and synchronize with clock signals, you will design your own custom binary ripple counters. The module concludes with a challenging project where you will build a dynamically controlled, asynchronous Up/Down counter using discrete logic gates.
