Examine an n-bit ripple counter and an n-bit synchronous counter. If
either of these counters cycles through all of its states, there are 2(2n) =
6-10.
a) Assuming there is an input “Up” for which the Gray code counter counts up when Up = 1 and down
when Up = 0, and that the counter outputs are G3, G2, G1, and G0, then the input equations for the
6-11.
