DLSim 6 Bit Counter

Author: Richard Salter

Description
This circuit shows a 6-bit binary counter written as a recursive tower of n-bit binary counters. Each n-bit (ctr[n]) counter extends an n-1 bit counter (ctr[n-1]) with an additional 1-bit counter in the most significant position. The 1-bit counter (called "D") is implemented with a JK flipflop.
