DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SYNCHRONOUS OR ASYNCHRONOUS COUNTER

Question

Accepted Answer

Synchronous counters use clock signals to change state, while asynchronous counters use external inputs.

Synchronous counters use flip-flops that change state on the rising or falling edge of a clock signal.
Asynchronous counters use flip-flops that change state based on external inputs, such as a button press or sensor reading.
Synchronous counters are more reliable and accurate, but require a clock signal.
Asynchronous counters are simpler and more flexible, but can be less reliable and accurate.
Examples of synchronous counters include binary and decade counters, while examples of asynchronous counters include ripple counters and Johnson counters.
