Decade Counter with IC 7490 Manual

This document describes a laboratory manual for constructing a decade counter using the IC 7490. It provides background on decade counters and the IC 7490. The IC 7490 is an asynchronous BCD counter with 4 flip flops internally connected to provide mod-2 and mod-5 counting. The circuit diagram and observations of the decade counter are presented, showing the output transitions from 0 to 9 with each clock pulse before resetting. Questions about the internal design of IC 7490 and constructing a mod-6 counter are also included.

Practical No 11: -Decade Counter using IC 7490.
Enrollment No: - 2001160167
Name of Student: - Gaikwad Mayuresh Suresh

Practical Significance: - Counter is a sequential circuit used for


counting the number of clock pulses. It is a group of Flip-Flops with a
clock signal applied to it. A counter has natural count of 2n where "n" is
number of flip-flop in the counter. Decade counter is a counter which
has ten states from 0 to 9.
Relevant Course Outcomes:- Build simple combinational circuits.
Practical outcome: -• Use IC 7490 to construct decade counter (MOD-
10).
Minimum Theoretical Background: - Decade counter is the one that
goes through 10 unique combinations of output and then resets as the
clock proceeds further. Since it is MOD -10 counters, it can be
constructed with a minimum of four flip-flops. A four bit counter
would have 16 states. By skipping any of six states by using some kind
of feedback or some kind of additional logic, we can convert a normal
four bit binary counter into a decade counter.

IC 7490 is a BCD asynchronous counter. It consists of 4 flip flops,


internally connected so as to provide Mod-2 and Mod -5 counter
functions. These ICs have set and reset inputs. These inputs help in
designing a modulus -M counter. The Mod -2 and Mod -5 counters can
be used independently or in combinations. Flip flop FFA operates as a
mod-2 counter whereas the combination of flip flops FFB, FFC, and
FFD form a mod-5 counter. There are two reset inputs R1 and R2 both
of which are to be connected to logic 1 level to reset the flip flops. The
two set inputs S1 and S2, when connected to logic 1 level, are used for
setting the counter to [Link] normal operation set and rest inputs are
connected to 0.
