Counters

What is a Counter?

In digital logic and computing, a counter is a device which stores (and sometimes displays) the number of times a particular event or process has occurred, often in relationship to a clock.

Why Counters?

Counters are digital circuits that can be used to count events, the pulse of a signal. Counters in digital electronics are used in various digital applications such as digital clocks, time measurement, and frequency measurement. Based on the state diagram, the robot path can be determined.

Types of Counters

Counters are broadly classified into 2 types:
