GATE | GATE-CS-2015 (Set 2) | Question 17

The minimum number of JK flip-flops required to construct a synchronous counter with the count sequence (0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 0, 0,…) is ________

(A)

0

(B)

1

(C)

2

(D)

3

Answer: (D)

Explanation:

Count sequence they are saying is : 00, 00, 01, 01, 10, 10, 11, 11 We can see repeated sequence above. So two bits will not be sufficient, we need atleast three flip flops. So, answer is 3.
