A decade counter skips
binary states 1000 to 1111
binary states 0000 to 0011
binary states 1010 to 1111
binary states 1111 to higher
Answer: Option
Explanation:

A decade counter counts from 0 to 9. It has 4 flip-flops. The states skipped are 10 to 15 or 1010 to 1111.

D can also be the answer. Why not d?

A decade counter counts in between 0 to 9 digits and the rest will be skipped so the option will be c and not d because 15 digit doesnt even occur in decade counter.

What is decade counter?

Decad means 10 ie 0-9in binary 0000-1110.

In 4bit we can add to count 0-15.

So, the Decad line is up to 1110 so, it skips from1010-1111.

How many states do we have in a 10 to 21 digital counter? Please tell me.

Decade =10, which means it has 10 locked states, which require 10 clock pulses.

It counts from 0000 to 1001 and restarts again from 0000 for the 11th clock pulse.
