An asynchronous (ripple) counter is a "chain" of toggle (T) flip-flops in which the least-significant flip-flop (bit 0) is clocked by an external signal (the counter input clock), and all other flip-flops are clocked by the output of the nearest, less significant flip-flop (e.g., bit 0 clocks the bit 1 flip-flop, bit 1 clocks the bit 2 flip ...
A 1-bit saturating counter (essentially a flip-flop) records the last outcome of the branch. This is the most simple version of dynamic branch predictor possible, although it is not very accurate. A 2-bit saturating counter [1] is a state machine with four states: Figure 2: State diagram of 2-bit saturating counter. Strongly not taken; Weakly ...
A straight ring counter, also known as a one-hot counter, connects the output of the last shift register to the first shift register input and circulates a single one (or zero) bit around the ring. A twisted ring counter, also called switch-tail ring counter, walking ring counter, Johnson counter, or Möbius counter, connects the complement of ...

The algorithmic state machine (ASM) is a method for designing finite-state machines (FSMs) originally developed by Thomas E. Osborne at the University of California, Berkeley (UCB) since 1960, [1] introduced to and implemented at Hewlett-Packard in 1968, formalized and expanded since 1967 and written about by Christopher R. Clare since 1970.
A full adder can be viewed as a 3:2 lossy compressor: it sums three one-bit inputs and returns the result as a single two-bit number; that is, it maps 8 input values to 4 output values. (the term "compressor" instead of "counter" was introduced in [13])Thus, for example, a binary input of 101 results in an output of 1 + 0 + 1 = 10 (decimal ...
It starts with the argument [i.e. N] in a counter, and (if it halts) leaves the answer [i.e. F(N)] in a counter." (p. 3) "Theorem: A counter machine can be simulated by a 2CM [two-counter machine], provided an obscure coding is accepted for the input and output" [p. 3; the "obscure coding" is: 2 W 3 X 5 Y 7 Z where the simulated counters are W ...
bit 5: always 0; bits 4–1: high-order 4 bits of the Q register, which is the right input to the 8-bit ALU; bit 0: result of the test specified by the CC field; The CC field can specify various tests of the state of the machine. It can also specify a constant 0 or 1 for an unconditional bit.
