Hi everyone

I built a 4 bit asynchronous counter:
]
th_64901_1253864766223_122_211lo.jpe
[/URL]

, the sequence is
1,2,3,4 right up to F and then 0,1,2,3...

My question is why doesn't the up counter start with 0...can someone explain it to me.Is this the correct sequence for a asynchrbous up counter.

Thank you & regards
