0 1 Figure 1 shows the input and output pins for a 4-bit binary counter. The output pin for
the least significant bit is A.

0 1




. 1 Complete Figure 1 by adding a single logic gate to the binary counter so that the
circuit functions as a modulo-6 counter.
[2 marks]


Figure 2 shows three outputs of the modulo-6 counter connected to a logic
sub-system that controls a 7-segment display.
The decimal point on the display is not shown.
The whole system shown in Figure 2 is to be used as an electronic dice.

Figure 2




Segments in the 7-segment display are turned on or off by the logic sub-system
to display the decimal numbers 1 to 6 in sequence.
A segment in the display turns on when the logic output with the same letter as the
segment is at logic 1.
