Decade Counter

The document outlines an experiment to design and implement an asynchronous decade counter using IC 7490, capable of counting from 0 to 9 and displaying the result on a seven-segment display. It includes a description of the components required, the theory behind asynchronous counters, a pin diagram, a truth table, and the procedure for conducting the experiment. The result confirms that the truth table for the counter has been verified.

EXPERIMENT: 9

Decade counter
AIM: To design and implement asynchronous counter using decade counter IC 7490 to count up from
0 to n (n≤9) and demonstrate on seven segment display.
COMPONENTS REQUIRED:
Sl.No Particulars Quantity
1 IC 7490 1
2 Trainer Kit 1
3 Patch cards 1 Bunch
4 Multimeter 1

THEORY:
Asynchronous counter is a counter in which the clock signal is connected to the clock input of only
first stage flip flop. The clock input of the second stage flip flop is triggered by the output of the first
stage flip flop and so on. This introduces an inherent propagation delay time through a flip flop. A
transition of input clock pulse and a transition of the output of a flip flop can never occur exactly at the
same time. Therefore, the two flip flops are never simultaneously triggered, which results in
asynchronous counter operation.

Pin Diagram: 7490


IC 7490 can count the binary numbers from 0000 to 1001. After 1001 it gets reset and again starts
counting. As the IC 7490 gets reset after counting ten numbers, it is called MOD-10 Decade Counter.

Pin Names Description of 7490:


R1 and R2-clear all filpflop S1 and S2- set all flip flop
CLKA-clock pulse to first flip flop CLKB-clock pulse to second flip flop

PROCEDURE:
• Check all the components for their working.
• Insert the appropriate IC into the IC base.
• Make connections as shown in the circuit diagram.
• Verify the Truth Table and observe the outputs.

RESULT: Truth tables of Asynchronous Counter using Decade Counter IC to count up from 0 to 9 is
verified.
