Design Problem

Design a synchronous counter that counts up 0, 1, 2, 3, 0, 1, 2, 3, ... when an input x = 1, and down when x = 0 using

(a) D flip-flops.

(b) J-K flip-flops.

You need to show the state definition table, the state transition diagram, the state transition table, the K-maps for the respective logic functions and the schematic of the implementation using flipflops and logic gates in (a) as well as the K-maps for the logic functions and the schematic in (b).

Additional Information:

1) You can either create an electronic document and submit your answer in a word or pdf format.

2) Or you can work on a scratch paper and scan your answer with a scanner. If you don't have a scanner you may use a camera such as on a computer or a phone to take a picture. Transfer your picture to your computer and upload your picture in .pdf or .jpg format.

3) You are welcome to simulate your design using Logisim to verify its functionality but it is NOT required.
