4-bit Register Register is the most fundamental storage, e.g.
x86 ISA has 8 general purpose registers MIPS ISA has 32 general purpose registers Each 1-bit Flip-flop is a single bit register Cascade 4 of 1-bit FFs = A 4-bit Register in3 in2 in1 in0 1 1-bit D Flip Flop 1-bit D Flip Flop 1-bit D Flip Flop 1-bit D Flip Flop 2 out3 out2 out1 out0

Read/Write Control a Register
Read: Retrieve data stored inside a flip-flop Write: Update with a new input data into a flip-flop Given 1 and 2 are continuous clock signals Output 1-bit D Flip Flop 1 2 In READ mode Output 1-bit D Flip Flop 1 2 Input In Write mode
4
Read/Write Control a Register
1-bit D Flip Flop Output R/W 1 2 Input
5
Another Read/Write Control of a Register
Input 1-bit D Flip Flop Output 1 2 R/W Clock Gating

Design a Serial Adder (yet another adder)
A A+B SI SR4 A SO A + S Clear B Ci Co Clock Ex: 0111 (A) (B) Clear SRs B 0111 (4 clks) B=0111 A=0000 B=1011 A=1000 B=1101 A=1100 B=0110 A=1110 B=0011 A=0111 B=0001 A=0011 B=0000 A=1001 B=0000 A=0100 B=0000 A=1010 Input SR4 B SI SO D Q Clear Clear Clock

Toggle Flip-Flop (Toggle Cell)
Upon every clock, the output result is toggled D1 Q1 D2 Q2 D1 Transparent latch Transparent latch En En En D1 Q1=D2 Q2
14
Toggle Flip-Flop D1 Q1 D2 Q2 1 2
Enable Bit (or TE bit) Transparent latch Transparent latch 1 2 Toggle bit controls to toggle (T=1) or not to toggle (T=0)
15
Toggle F/F with Clear bit
Output D1 Q1 D2 Q2 TE Bit Transparent latch Transparent latch Clear 1 2 Clear Toggle Enable Present Output Next Output X 1 Note that output changes every clock cycle (e.g. rising edge or falling edge)
16
Toggle F/F Symbol Clear TE Present Q Next Q X 1 TE Q CLR 1 2
17
Counters A register counts up or down per clock period
Count in binary Could be preset: (with parallel loads) Types of counters Ripple counter Synchronous counter Mod-n counter Up/down counter BCD counter Gray code counter Ring counter a 1 moves in a ring from one F/F to the next Johnson counter (or twisted ring count.) The MSB is inversed and passed to the LSB)
18
2-bit Ripple Counter Count Enable TE Q TE Q CLR CLR 1 2 O0 O1 1 O0
19
2-bit Ripple Counter TE Q TE Q CLR CLR 1 2 1 Count Enable O0 O1 O0

4-bit Ripple Counter TE Q TE Q TE Q TE Q CLR CLR CLR CLR 1 2 1
Enable TE Q TE Q TE Q TE Q CLR CLR CLR CLR 1 2 O0 O1 O2 O3 1 O0 O1 O2 O3
21
4-bit Synchronous Counter
Clocks are applied to the inputs of all the F/F Count Enable TE Q TE Q TE Q TE Q CLR CLR CLR CLR 1 2 O0 O1 O2 O3 1 O0 =TE1 O1 O2 O4
22
Modulo-N (or Divide-by-N) Counter
CLR CE O3 O2 O1 O0 1 2 4-bit Counter CLR Terminal Count (TC) MOD-10 counter (a BCD Counter) Mod-N Count from 0 to N-1 Then reset and start over
