Engineering Design a synchronous circuit using negative edge-triggered D

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on designing a synchronous circuit using negative edge-triggered D flip-flops to create an output signal Z with one-fifth the frequency of the clock signal. Participants are encouraged to share their timing diagrams to illustrate the relationship between the clock and output signal. There is an emphasis on ensuring that all unused or illegal states are forced to zero for recovery. The problem hints at multiple potential solutions, indicating flexibility in design approaches. Overall, the thread seeks collaborative input to tackle the circuit design effectively.

Homework Statement


(Problem 225) Design a synchronous circuit using negative edge-triggered D
flip- flops that provides an output signal Z which has one-fifth the frequency of the clock
signal. Draw a timing diagram to indicate the exact relationship between the clock
signal and the output signal Z. To ensure illegal state recovery, force all unused or
illegal states to go to 0. [Hint: There are many answers to this problem.]
