Q1:

The initial state of MOD-16 down counter is 0110. What state will it be after 37 clock pulses?

A Indeterminate

B 0110

C 0101

D 0001

ANS:D - 0001

A mod-16 counter goes through 16 states in one cycle of 16 Pulses. It complete 2 cycles in 32 Pulses. In the rest 5 Pulses, it moves down from 0110 = 610 - 510 = 110 or (001)2 .
