Assume that you have a clock signal with frequency of 50 Hz, andyou want to divide this signal into a frequency of 1 Hz signal. Thecounter chips you must use are synchronous decade (MOD 10) counterchips 74160 and synchronous MOD 16 counter chips 74161. Please usethe back side of this paper to draw your circuit diagram with allthe details.


You can use counter frequency division method to step down ahigher frequency signal to a lower frequency signal. To divide a 50Hz signal into a 1 Hz signal, you need to construct a counter witha total MOD 50 so that 50/50 = 1. To construct such a counter, youcan use counter cascading method by cascading a MOD 10 counter suchas 74160 with a MOD 5 counter so that the total MOD of the cascadedcounter is 10x5 = 50. Since MOD 10 counter 74160 is a synchronouscounter, you should truncate a synchronous counter such as a MOD 16synchronous counter 74161 into a synchronous MOD 5 counter. You canuse any additional logic gates in your counter truncationdesign.
