Can anyone explain it briefly with the concept?

Because every register contain a flip flop.

The right answer is 12. Because in ring counter n ff's generate n states. In johnson n ff's generate 2n states. What you guys answering is for mod N counter it needs n ff's (N<=2^n).

May I known why is it so @Velkuargn. Please explain.

For mod-12 counter only 4 FF.

For mod- ring counter 12 FF.

12 flip flops because ring counter uses states n so here modulus is 12.

It should be 4ff as per the condition N<2^n. But here in options 6 is the nearst answer.

In the ring counter n flip-flops are used for the mod-n.

Mahesh dadhich said:   1 decade ago
It should be 6 ff because there is condition that N<2^n where n is smallest number for flip flop.
