How many natural states will there be in a 4-bit ripple counter?(a) 4(b) 8(c) 16(d) 32The question was posed to me in an internship interview.My doubt stems from Asynchronous Counter topic in chapter Counters of Digital Circuits

Answer»

The correct choice is (C) 16

To ELABORATE: In an n-bit counter, the total NUMBER of states = 2^n.

Therefore, in a 4-bit counter, the total number of states = 2^4 = 16 states.
