flip flop projects

[loun_vre]

hello....can anyone suggest a project using flip flop? i really need an idea for my project... thank you!

Perhaps you are familiar with a BCD counter where the binary count value is decoded to drive a seven segment display. Now imagine a different concept where seven JK flip flops each drive one of the display segments directly. Your project is to design the gate circuitry for the JK inputs. For a more interesting project, make it an UP/DOWN counter.

thank you so much.....i'll try doing your suggestion..

I'd also consider what type of flip-flop you have or will need to use.


SR, JK, D, and T

@(*steve*) While there are a variety of flip-flop types available, I would recommend the JK type as most flexible and useful for the design of complex finite state machines.
