Solution:
The detailed solution to the question, how many FFS are required for mod-479 counter______?
is provided here.
a “Mod-N” counter will require an “N” number of flip-flops connected together to count a single data bit while providing 2n different output states, (n is the number of bits). Note that N is always a whole integer value.
Here,
N=479
2n≥N=479
n≥479
n≥8.9
n≈9
Therefore, 9 FFS are required for the mod-479 counter. Hence, Option (C) is the correct answer.
